General Notes: Husband - Hon. John Stall

---

He emigrated with his parents to near Beach City, Stark County, Ohio, in 1833. In 1852 they moved to Indian Village, Noble County, Indiana, where he and his wife took an active part in building up a United Brethren Society in that village. In 1870 they emigrated to Kansas and settled on the farm where he died. In 1875 the people of the 37th district honored him by choosing him as their representative in the State Legislature as a republican, and returned him to serve a second term. On his death bed he gave strong evidence that he was prepared to die, and had no fear of death. His last words were: "Higher, higher, higher." The name by which he was familiarly known, "Honest John Stall," was fairly earned. As a citizen he was a patriot, as a neighbor hospitable, and as a father, husband and friend, he was always kind and gentle. He was an honored member of the A. F. & A. M., under whose auspices his funeral services were conducted. The funeral procession was long and imposing, 122 vehicles being in line.
