The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, April 23, 1908
The Ledger is pained to learn of the death of J.T. TREASURE, a former resident of Whitebreast Township. He was born near Louisville, Kentucky, February 11, 1848 and died at his home two miles southeast of Kirksville, Mo. on Tuesday, April 14, 1908. He had been in declining health for about three years but confined to his bed only a week.
He leaves a wife, three sons and four daughters -- one son, WILL, preceding
him to the grave three years ago. he was laid to rest as was his desire, in
Highland Park Cemetery, a mile from the family home, on Thursday, April 16.
MR. TREASURE grew to manhood in the State of Missouri, but in his early
manhood he and young wife located in Jackson Township, Monroe County, later
purchasing a farm in Whitebreast Township where the family resided until
moving to Kirksville, Mo. He was an honest, upright citizen and ever did a
neighbor's part in the community in which he dwelt. These sterling
characteristics form a better monument to his memory than mere words of
eulogy on marble shafts.
