Memorial Photos 1 Flowers 0 The Fairfield Ledger Feb. 8, 1872 Page 3, col. 4. Death of William Huston. - The many friends of Mr. William Huston were afflicted with sore grief over the news of his death, which occurred at Iowa City on the 31st of January, from Cramp Colie, after a short illness of about 36 hours. His age was 23 years and 9 months. His remains were brought home on the 1st of February in charge of two of his friends, William Read and Rolla J. Wilson, students in the State University. William Huston was born in Fairfield. His father and mother have been dead for a number of years. Mr. George Gilbert, his uncle, was his guardian. For the past three years William has been a close student in the University, and his application has tended to shorten his days on this earth. His remains were brought to the house of Mr. William Gilbert on the 1st inst., and from thence, on the day following, were taken to the Presbyterian Church. Rev. C. Reed (sic. likely Rev. Carson Reed, who is buried in Evergreen cemetery in Fairfield) preached the funeral sermon - The friends who came with his remains testified to the high esteem in which he was held by his fellow students, and the following resolutions of his class-mates were read by young Mr. Read: WHEREAS, An inscrutable Providence has this day removed from our midst our class mate, William Huston, Resolved, 1. That in his decease the members of Class 74 have lost a true friend, and the University an earnest student. 2. That we, as a Class, will ever cherish his memory with kindly feelings, endeavoring to imitate his many good qualities. 3. That we tender our sincere sympathy to the friends and relatives of our deceased Brother, commending them to the grace of that overruling Providence which "doeth all things well." 4. That a copy of these resolutions be presented to the relatives of the deceased, and also that they be published in the University Reporter and the city papers. Committee: D. MURPHY, W. D. TISDALE, F. E. BRUSH, January 31, 1872. His remains were followed to their last resting place by a large concourse of relatives and friends.
