Henry Bonewell was born near Hull, Eng., in November 1831. When 2 years old he moved to Canada, where He grew up, locating later in Cleveland, Ohio, where fiftyfive years ago he was married to Miss Agnes Sanderson. The family came to Kansas in 1880, settling in Cottonwood Falls, where Mr. Bonewell was engaged in the hotel business or a number of years. For the past fifteen years he has lived in Emporia, and since the death of his wife three years ago, had lived with Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Bonewell.
