Henry McKeown Dead.
The many friends of Henry McKeown will regret to learn of his passing which occurred in Cushing Tuesday, August 14, 1923. He was one of the early day settlers and at one time was most influential in politics and business, having been elected to the office of county treasurer in this county.
His health failed him a few years ago which impaired his mind to such an extent that he became quite a care to his family. He was one of Lincoln county’s finest and most beloved citizens, living in and near Agra since the beginning. He was sixty-one years old at the time of his death. His funeral Wednesday following his death was largely attended by old friends and neighbors who had know him at his best, and they came to pay the last tribute of respect to a departed friend and pioneer. Interment was made in Avery cemetery.
