Burr Oak Herold--Jewell County, KS.-June 20, 1898

James Cline, senior, aged 70 years, one of the pioneers of Jewell County, was found 
dead by the roadside a short distance from his home, up the creek, last evening.  
He had started after supper to Charley Payne's place, about a mile distance, going 
on horseback.  Soon afterward his horse returned and his wife going in search of her 
husband found him lying by the road side on a little bank in an easy posture, lifeless. 
Corner Mays was called and decided death was due to a paralytic stroke.  Uncle Cline 
was a good man.  The funeral services will be held at Cyclone school house this 
afternoon at three o'clock and will be conducted by Rev. A. S. Poulson.  
Interment in Providence Cemetery.  His wife and nine children survive.  
The children are all grown and all but two are in Jewell County.
