Stephen Spencer Steven's obituary: With the laying away in the family plot at Ogdensburg, last Monday, of all that was mortal of Stephen Spencer, Union bows her head and in sympathy drops a tear, with the family in this their great bereavement. Six years ago it was intimated to the family that kidney trouble was to be expected, and then commenced a struggle for life on one side and the dread of Birght's disease on the other. Inevitable results, - all that loving hearts and willing hands, assisted by a tireless physician and a trained nurse, could do was of no avail, and on the morning of March 8 the end came. He was 40 years old and married the only child of William and Anna Bunn, of Ogdensburg. Two daughters were born to them, Laura, who preceded her father, with the same disease, six years ago this month, and Hazel a young lady, at home. He leaves a mother, his wife and daughter, and two sisters, Mrs. Hiram Leonard, of Leolyn, and Mrs. Thomas Stull, of Union. Mr. Spencer was one of Union's most successful farmers; a man that everyone esteemed. About a year ago he became identified with the Disciple Church at Ogdensburg, was chosen as one of the Church officials, and up to his death was an exemplary member.
