Fragmentary obituary notes describe a death in a Kansas City area hospital at about five months old. Funeral services were held at a Methodist Church in Lewence with the family and W. W. Burnett. Relatives, including E. W. Adams and Mrs Conwell, traveled from Topeka to attend. A stray historical note asserts shaving began with Greek warriors for grip in battle, tied to Alexander the Great era.
