Funeral of Joe Windle at Salem Yesterday Afternoon
Our Salem Correspondent Gives Graphic account of the Life of An Honored Citizen of That Place.
----
It was indeed a shock to the many relatives and friends , when it was learned that Joseph E. Windle Sr. had passed away.
He was on his way home from lumber yard, about 5:30 p. m. Saturday, March 29, when he dropped dead in front of his son's home. Mrs. Windle had just come across the street, saw Mr. Windle coming and when she turned again to look he was nowhere in sight, on going to the spot where she had seen him, she found him lying dead.
He had apparently been well and Mrs. Windle said that he seemed happier and in better spirits than usual that day.
During the afternoon he had been in the lumber yard, where he was in charge of the business while Joseph Jr., was busy at the feed (next word is torn) and was spending this time at a game of checkers with Frank Arnell. This was his favorite diversion and a game with an old friend was the only sort of worldly pleasure in which he indulged.
Joseph Windle was 76 years old and was born Oct 1st, 1847, in Shenandoah Co., Va., and was the son of Wm. and Mary (Kretzsinger) Windle, both natives of Virginia. When 8 years old, he, with his parents, brothers, and sisters moved to Ogle Co., Ill., where he grew to manhood on the farm and attended public school.
While living in Ogle County, Ill., he was married to Anna Belle Price, March 2nd 1872 (next 3 words are torn) years old and Mrs. Windle was 23. They at once started out to seek their fortunes, with a team and covered wagon and in company with four other couples--each couple having a wagon of their own -- they crossed the country, their destination being Union Co., Iowa. While there they underwent the hardships of the early settlers, and the climax of their troubles being reached when one of their horses died. Six months was spent in Union County and with their remaining horses hitched in with another belonging to L. D. Lawrence, he in company with "Joe and Belle" started out again in their covered wagon, this time they came to Nebraska and rented land in Liberty Precinct, Richardson county, where they made their home for many years, starting out with nothing but a firm faith in the future and that it would doubtless have in store for them more prosperous times than the past. In some way enough money was raised to buy two cows, these and the pig that was given to Mrs. Windle by Levi Hitchcock comprised Mr. Windle's start in the livestock business. Mrs. Windle fattened and cared for the pig until it was big enough to sell. With the money, which was $8.00, she bought, their first piece of furniture, a safe with perforated tin doors. No couple with all the luxuries that can be bought with wealth could feel the pleasure and satisfaction comparable with theirs, when they purchased this first piece of furniture.
While living on the farm the children began to arrive, their first, a girl, was named Hattie A., now deceased; then came Fred R; then Oliver P; both living in St. Joseph, MO; Grace, deceased; Joe Jr., Salem, Neb; Dean K., of Wymore, Neb; and Wayne W. of Salem.
About 28 years ago Mr. and Mrs. Windle and their children, then all being alive, bought property in Salem and moved to town. With the exception of two years when they lived in Falls City, they have made their home in this town, and even in the same house. Their move to Falls City was in 1921, where Mr. Windle had built a new and modern home, thinking that the conveniences would make the work easier for his wife, however, he was never quite satisfied at being away from his old home, all his boys, and his church. Nearly every day during his sojourn in Falls City, he would drive to Salem and there were very (page torn) when he was not seen (page torn) pew at church. A (page torn) they (end of this column of the article; was there more in the ori ginal clipping?)
...returned to Salem, remodeled their old home and expected to spend many happy years in this loved place, and where they could see the old friends and be in touch with the business, which Joe Jr. and Wayne had taken over, but were helped out many times by their father.
About 30 years ago, during the Rosewarne revival, Mr. Windle was converted and when the Gospel Union church was organized, he was one of the charter members. Ever since he was converted he has been a devout Christian, living his religion both week days and Sundays, has been a leading m ember of the Congregational church, and was a liberal contributor to the church, and for any civic cause as well. At one time he was president of the Richardson County Fair association, and has been an honored and valued citizen, who will be sadly missed in Salem.
He was the seventh of ten children and the seventh of the ten to pass away. Three are still living, of his brothers and sisters, Isaiah Windle of Springfield, MO; Washington W., of Paola, Ill; and Mrs. Maggie A. Kemp of Hollister, Cal. He was, also the grandfather, and admirer, of sixteen grand children and one great grandchild, and "Dad", as he was lovingly called by his five boys and Mrs. Windle, has gone to the reward, in which he firmly believed, and if there ever was a man, who was ready spiritually, to be called to "that home not made with hands, eternal in the heavens ," it was Mr. Windle. We heard a perfect tribute spoken by one of his sons, when he said: "I think that Dad was just perfect."
He passed away just as he would have chosen it, if his going had been left to his judgment, without a struggle and no suffering, still enjoying life, happy with his wife, his sons and his grandchildren. Nothing but kind words are heard--not just because he has left us, but because he was deserving of this praise, and earned it by the exemplary life he lead. To the widow who is left, to travel the remainder of life's journey alone, and to the boys, who will miss the fatherly council and advice, we extend our heartfelt sympathy.
The funeral services were conducted at the Congregational church Monday afternoon at 2:30, M. Allen Keith of Omaha had charge of the services. The pallbearers being his special friends were Henry Stitzer, Ray Huston, Frank Arnell , Jim Lumby, Andy Crook and Bert McCool.
