Frederick E. Young, the subject of this sketch was born in Madison county, Ia., April 27, 1879. Here he grew to manhood. About two years ago he was married to Miss Grace Swearingen. Together they moved from their native state to Kansas, in June of last year and in September to Oklahoma. But all efforts to free himself from the dread destroyer - consumption - were unavailing. He died in Hennessey Okla., March 27, just at noon, surrounded by loved ones and friends. He lacked just one month of being 25 years old. About two years ago he became a member of the Christian Union church, and his last message was sent to the man who had pointed him to Jesus, telling him he had died right. He leaves a wife and babe, father, brother and sister, to mourn a loss which time can never repair.
The funeral was preached at the house by Elder Gillispie of the Christian church. At the close of the service the K. P's took charge of the remains and accompanied them to the depot. Wm. Kale and the wife of the deceased went with the body on this sad journey back to the old home in Iowa. There the son will sleep beside his mother, who died several years ago.
