TRANSCRIBED TEXT:

That silent messenger that moves about here and there, entered the home of Ernest Rowe last Sunday afternoon at 2:45 and took him to a far better land than this where there is no pain or sorrow. Ernest has suffered intensely for the past year, and all that could be done was done to alleviate his pain and effect a cure, but all-wise Providence deemed it otherwise, and he is now at rest with his Heavenly Father whom he loved and trusted. He was born on January 6th, 1879 and had attained the age of 40 years, 3 months and 7 days. He has always lived here and on August 27th, 1902 he was united in marriage to Miss Grace Mortimer. To this union was born 3 daughters, Irma, Isla and Fern, who with their mother are left to mourn his departure. Besides these he leaves his mother, Mrs. William Rowe, five brothers and one sister. They are Walter and Forest of York, Jesse of Fremont, Glenn of Marinette and Vernon of McCleary, Washington; and Jennie (Mrs. A. P. Fulwiler) of this place, also a large circle of friends, all of whom extend deep sympathy to those in bereavement. He was a good neighbor and always interested in the welfare of the community and was a member of the local Modern Woodman camp of this place. Funeral took place Wednesday afternoon from the M.E. Church. Rev. E. E. Strevey officiating with interment in the cemetery here.
