    Notes:

    M. L. YEAZEL DIES AT HOME HERE SUNDAY EVENING
    Retired Farmer Had Spent Entire Life In Homer Community
    The Homer Enterprise
    Thursday, August 31, 1939

    Matthew L. Yeazel, a life-long and esteemed resident of Homer community, died at his home on West First street at 6:30 p. m. Sunday, Aug. 27. His illness and death resulted from complications due to his advanced age of 81 years. For many months he had been forced to be in bed for several days at a time, but rallied from each attack enough to care for his home and to take an occasional trip to town.
    The body lay in state at the Presbyterian church Wednesday morning and until the hour for the funeral services, which were conducted from the church by the pastor, Rev. W. I. Toussaint. Interment, with a short graveside service by the Odd Fellows lodge, was in G. A. R. cemetery. Scott funeral service was in charge of arrangements.
    Serving as pall bearers were his nephews: J. T. and Charles A. Yeazel, William H. and Ralph O’Neil and J. C. Robert and Roy Hall.
    Flowers were carried by Mrs. H. V. Lacey, Mrs. Roy Lee, Mrs. Arthur Ford, Mrs. Clarence Ellis, Mrs. J. E. Miles, Mrs. Walter Wood, Mrs. H. P. Morrison, Mrs. George Porter and Miss Lillian Conkey. Funeral hymns were sung by Mrs. Miles, Mrs. Porter, Mrs. Morrison and Mrs. Howard Hess.
    Mr. Yeazel was born June 12, 1858, in a log house one mile west of here and about one-fourth mile north of the farm residence where the Irvin Wakefield family now lives. He was the son of James and Maria Spencer Yeazel. In 1879 he was married to Julia Smith (one line not readable) death in March, 1925. He later married Della Agnew, who survives him.
    Mr. Yeazel was engaged in farming most of his life, retiring and coming to Homer about 18 years ago. He was a member of Homer Presbyterian church and of the local I. O. O. F. lodge, and for years was a member of the K. of P. order. He was a charter member of a social organization of friends who were young people in the 1870’s who called themselves “Boys and Girls of the 70’s”. He served as treasurer of the group since its organization and derived much pleasure from the meetings of the group of old friends.
    Surviving besides his wife are three daughters by his first marriage: Mrs. Nell Davis, Sheridan, Wyo.; Mrs. Lelia Johnston, Valparaiso, Ind., and Mrs. Estella Havard, Homer. Also surviving are seven grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, and a half-brother, Milton J. Yeazel, Danville. Ralph O’Neil, Homer, is a nephew.
