James Cooley, who had resided in this vicinity for nearly forty years, died at his home at 919 Lincoln street, Neodesha, Thursday, July 9, 1914, at 9:30 a.m., of paralysis, aged 78 years, 3 months, and 2 days. James Cooley was born reared and married to Miss Margaret Ann Jacobs near White House Station, New Jersey. After his marriage he moved to Illinois where he lived for a time and then came to Kansas, locating in Chase county. In the winter 1874-75 Mr. Cooley, and family moved to Wilson county, settling on a farm just west of Neodesha which he owned at his death. Eight years ago Mr. Cooley decided to retire from active farm life and move to town, buying the property which has since been his home on Lincoln street. He leaves a wife and the following sons and daughters: Ambrose Cooley, Pendleton, Oregon; Ed. Cooley, McCloud, Okla.; A. R. Cooley, Neodesha; Mrs. Madge Linderman, Kansas City; Miss Lena Cooley, Neodesha; Milton Cooley, Burlington, Kansas. Three children died in infancy and two sons, Frank and Elisha, died after growing to manhood. He leaves a brother in Illinois and one in New Jersey. James Cooley was a well known citizen, not only of Neodesha but of Wilson county. He had always taken an active part in politics and had been a delegate to many county, state and congressional conventions. He had been a life-long Republican, but in the last campaign followed Roosevelt into the third party. He like many others good Republicans, was a great admirer of Teddy. Mr. Cooley was an honest conscientious man and was honored by all who knew him. He would not intentionally do any man a wrong and his good deeds of the past, are many. As a husband and father the love and respect in which he was always held by his family shows him to have been all that the word implies. He was a veteran of the Civil war, serving in the Third New Jersey cavalry. He was also one of the oldest members of Humphrey Post No. 145, and always took an active and helpful part. The influence and life of James Cooley in this community has always been good and beneficial and in his death the community has sustained the loss of a man who will be greatly missed by those who had known him so long. Funeral services were held at the home last Friday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock, conducted by Rev. I. B. Pulliam of the Methodist church, members of Humphrey Post attending the funeral in a body.
