Edward Mansur Greene, son of Mansur W. and Minerva Stillman Greene, was born at Wells, Minn., June 28, 1877. Later the family moved to Fargo, N. D., where they lived several years and where the father practiced law. There were born to them five children, two of whom passed away, a sister and a brother, while they lived in Fargo. Two of the family still remain, Ernest S. of Seattle, Wash., and Frank W. of Chicago.
After the death of the father the mother brought her family to Milton.
Edward was married to Helen Smith November 5, 1895. One child, a daughter, Edna Louise, was born to them. Edward died March 3, 1919.
As friends and neighbors we pause a while from our daily occupations to sympathize with his family. He was a kind and loving husband, father, son, brother and neighbor. May he have entered into that rest that remains for the people of God.
The funeral services were held Thursday. The house was filled with sympathizing friends and the flowers were numerous and lovely. Rev. F. H. Burdick gave a comforting discourse and the song service was beautifully rendered by a quartet composed of Miss Alberta Crandall, Mrs. J. H. Babcock, Howell Randolph and L. A. Babcock. Interment was in the Milton cemetery.
