family he came to Lincoln, Kansas, when he was 3 years of age and from that

came to him at his home in Lincoln at 7 p.m. on Jan. 25, 1928, at the age of
48 years 11 months and 20 days.
His life was one of quiet usefulness and he held a high place in the esteem
of all who knew him. In his earlier years he experienced the hardships of
pioneer conditions and almost from his boyhood he shared in responsibilities
for his own needs and for those of the family. His father died when he was
about 20 years of age and his responsibility became greater in behalf of his
mother and sister. He became a carpenter and builder, his first experience
being gained in the construction of grain elevators. He came to enjoy an
enviable position in his calling, having the respect and confidence of all.
He was a member of the Modern Woodmen of America and of the Izaak Walton
League.
After months of intense suffering it became apparent both to him and his family that there could be but one outcome. He knew that the end was near and he faced it unafraid. He expressed himself as fully ready to go. His last thought and arrangements were for his loved ones and his final conscience hours. He leaves the wife and daughter, one brother, W.T. SHERMAN of Lincoln, and one sister, Mrs. Myrtle HUFF of Salina. His father and mother lie at rest in the local cemetery. His score of friends extend sympathy in this hour to his loved ones while they pay respect to his memory. His was a good and useful life well lived. The fight is finished,
the earthly course is run.
Funeral services were held Friday afternoon, Jan. 27, at the Methodist Church. The church was filled almost to capacity which was a silent tribute to his friends and showed the esteem in which he was held by those who knew him. Interment was made in the Lincoln Cemetery.

T., John L. and Ella Myrtle.
Mr. SHERMAN, during the time which he has lived in Lincoln, has earned a
reputation for industry and integrity which anyone ought to desire. He
worked almost constantly and under physical conditions which would have
discouraged many. His quiet manliness who, with his wife and family, mourn
his departure.
He was a second cousin of William Tecumseh and John SHERMAN of national
fame and in many respects the family traits of activity and application were manifest in him. While it was not given him to rise to prominence he left what every person ought to seek, the remembrance of an untarnished name.
