| Notes |
- James Shane, son of Albert and Emma Shane, was born in Peoria County, Illonois, may 26, 1884, and died at his father's resdients near Lawn Ridge, marshall County, Ill. on Nov. 5, 1902, age 18 years, 5 months and 10 days. His illness was very brief and in spite of medical skill and tender attention he passed away before many of his friends knew of his illness.
A father, mother, six brothers and three sisters survive to mourn the loss.
The funeral services were held at the family residence, conducted by Rev. J.H. Runalls. A quartet consisting of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Hinnan, Miss Ada Hinnan and W. Runnalls furnished the music for the occasion with Miss Nellie Runnalls at the organ. The intermet took place at the Lawn Ridge Cemetery and the large gathering at the house, and the long funeral procession testified to the respect in which the deceased was held, as well as their sympathy for the bereaved family.
Additional obituary
James Shane, son of Albert and Emma Shane, was born near Lawn Ridge, May 26, 1884, and died Nov. 5, 1902, his age being 18 years, 5 months and 10 days. For several weeks he had been afflicted with numerous boils which were treated with the usual home remedies and he continued at his farm duties, working for his brother Daniel. Finally a huge carbuncle came, located on the spinal column, which so completely unnerved him that he gave up work, went home, and a doctor's aid was called in. All that medical skill could do was done, but blood poison developed rapidly and in five short days he died---cut down in the first bloom of his young manhood. Rugged, energetic and helpful in labor, quiet and peaceful in manner, genial and pleasant in social intercourse, he was a favorite with all who knew him and a burden of sorrow rests on the hearts of his young associates. The funeral service was held at the home, conducted by Rev. J. H. Runalls, of the Congregational church, at whose services he was a constant attendant. Beautiful music was rendered by Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hinman and daughter, Ada, and Whitfield Runalls. The beautiful gray casket was fairly loaded with the fairest flowers, the sympathetic tributes of his many neighbors, friends and schoolmates, one large, elegant wreath coming from Mr. and Mrs. Edwards, of Peoria, close friends of the family. All of his brothers and sisters were present except his sister, Nettie, who lives near Topeka, Kan., whom sickness prevented from being present. Six of his boy friends and schoolmates, Frank Wilson, Robbie Green, George Perkins, Dick Wiles, John Green and Brooks Wiles were the pall bearers who bore him away to the last resting place in the Lawn Ridge cemetery. The warmest sympathy is manifest throughout the community for the mourning family in their sudden affliction.
