  At his home in the town of Rantoul on Saturday, March 11, 1905, Charles King, aged 49 years, 2 months and 11 days. The deceased was the only son of Patrick and Mary King and was born in Boston, Mass., Dec. 28, 1855. When one year old his parents moved to Wisconsin and located in the woods in Rantoul, which was virtually the only home the young man knew. On May 14, 1889, he was married to Katherine Carroll and took charge of the old homestead. Some four years ago he suffered a severe attack of rheumatism which was the beginning of his ill health. He went to Mount Clemens, Mich., taking the baths and treatment for six weeks, but other complications set in on his return home and from that time until his death he was scarcely ever free from suffering. He spent months in a sanitarium at Milwaukee under treatment and made a valiant fight for life, being hopeful until the last that the disease might be checked. But his death, untimely as it seemed, in the prime of life, was inevitable and followed quickly his return from Milwaukee on Feb. 28. Mr. King was a good man. He was exemplary in character, ambitious and successful until stricken with ill health and the loss which his family sustained in his death is a severe one. The funeral took place on Tuesday from St. Augustine's church and was a very large one, friends and old neighbors in great numbers paying their last tribute of respect to the deceased. Many beautiful floral offerings, expressing the sorrow and sympathy of distant friends and relatives were received. A widow, five sons, and two daughters, his aged parents and three sisters survive the deceased.
