BEGIN

  The funeral of Ira Raub, occurred here on Friday last, death coming after
a short illness from inflammation of the bowels.  Nearly forty years ago he
moved here from New Jersey and during his residence here lived where he died,
on the farm near Niven, three miles southeast from here.  The funeral was
largely attended and the profusion of beautiful flowers deposited on the
grave, some of which came from the home of his youth, showed the esteem in
which he was held.  His age was fifty-eight years.  The funeral services
were conducted by Rev. L. T. Van Campen of West Nicholson.  The wife and
two daughters survive him.
