THE WESTERN STAR, 25 September 1886
Obituary of HOWARD C. ROOD
HOWARD C. ROOD DEAD.

Died, in this city, Sunday, September 19th, 1886, Howard C. Rood. Mr. Rood was well known here, having been one of our earliest settlers. He was a contractor and builder by trade, which vocation he followed successfully in this city and built many of its most substantial edifices. He was married on July 5th last year, to Miss Carrie B. Pierson, of Champaign, Illinois, and leaves a wife and child to mourn his untimely death. How short is life? Before we have realized our
highest hopes and ambitions, we are met by the Grim Destroyer.
