MILTON MOORE DIES IN WEST
WAS WELL KNOWN RESIDENT OF PLYMOUTH COUNTY FOR MANY YEARS

     Milton Moore, a former resident of Seney and LeMars, died at Haxtun,
Colorado, Thursday evening, July 17, at the age of 75 years, 8 months and 28
days.  He was well known in Seney where he lived many years.  For a number
of years he was engaged in business at Alton and in later years conducted
the Union hotel billiard parlors in this city.  He retired from business in
LeMars in 1924 and went to Haxtun, Colo., where he made his home the past
six years.
     Milton Moore was born in Whiteside county, Illinois, November 19, 1854,
and was the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Moore.  He came to Iowa with
them when a boy.  They settled in Fayette county.  Mr. Moore came to
Plymouth county in 1889.  After the death of his father, which took place in
1892, his mother joined him here (and) they resided together until her death
in 1922.
     Mr. Moore was a trustworthy man, a devoted son and brother and was
highly respected by all who knew him.
     Besides a host of friends he leaves to mourn his loss, four brothers,
Lee Moore, of Dickens, Iowa; Ira L. Moore, of Howard Lake, Minn.; Will
Moore, of Haxtun, Colo.; Clarence Moore, of Seney, and two sisters, Mrs.
George Dempster, of Springfield, S. D., and Mrs. J. R. Hinde, of Seney.
     Mr. Moore was a descendant of early colonists in America and members of
his family have served in all the principal wars in which the country has
engaged.
     The body was brought back to his old home for burial and the services
held in the Methodist church at Seney, Rev. M. L. Metcalf preaching the
sermon.  Music was rendered by a male quartette.
     The pallbearers were old friends of the dead man, Elam Chapman, Jake
Berkenpas, William Rees, John Osborne, Elmer Anstine and Grant Chapman.
Interment was made in the LeMars cemetery.
