The following obituary was pasted in the records with the following two notes: This man was here with us &
Boarder $60 month in advance.
FIND BODY
OF MISSING
WATSEKA
RESIDENT,
WATSEKA (JNS) - The body of a 78-year-old Watseka man was
found this morning two miles from the Iroquois County farm, where he had
been staying since March 24.
William H. Templin, who until last March resided at 124 Brown
St., was found near the home of Mr. and Mrs. Addison Keith by a truck
driver for a local coal, hardware and lumber company.
According to sheriff's officers, who had been searching for Templin
since he was reported missing Wednesday afternoon, he apparently died of
exhaustion and exposure.
Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Redeker, managers of the county farm, noticed
Templin was gone shortly after 5:10 p.m. Wednesday. They immediately
started a search, summoning the aid of Iroquois County authorities.
IT IS BELIEVED Templin left the farm and made his way through
fields until he arrived at the Keith home. His body was found at the north
side of the house. He apparently was unnoticed by occupants of the house
since the most frequently used entrance is on the south side.
The trucker who discovered the body came to the Keith home this
morning to deliver coal. Finding no one at home, he walked around to the
north side and found Templin. He called the sheriff's office at 8:40 a.m.
Authorities presume Templin had been lying near the Keith home
throughout the search, having stopped for a rest.
152
78
,_
Mr. Templin became a resident of the county farm due to failing
health, he was born Feb. 26, 1877, in Iroquois County and was a retired
signa'l maintenance man for the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad.
He later operated his own repair shop in Watseka.
HE WAS MARRIED to the former Mrs. Maude Nixon in 1904 in
Watseka. She died on Nov. 23, 1935. Surviving are a daughter, Mrs.
Dorothy Richardson, Gary, Ind.; a son, William H. Jr., Goodland, Ind.,
a stepson, George Nixon, Watseka, six grandchildren, four great
grandchildren, and a half brother, Fred Weingert, Mount Hope. Three
brothers and a sister preceded him in death.
Mr. Templin spent his childhood in Ash Grove Township. He was a
member of the Modern Woodman of America, the IOOF of Watseka.
The body is at the Segur Funei'al Home where friends may call until
time of funeral services. Services will be in the funeral home at 2 p.m.
Sunday with the Rev. Robert Spenn, pastor of St. Peter's Lutheran Church,
Crescent City, officiating. Burial will be in the Body Cemetery near
Woodland.
