          “HOWARD OLDS, Prominent in Civic Life of Town for Years”
     “Spends entire life in Bureau County; Former Fire Dept. Chief”
"(Special to Star-Courier)
“Wyanet, July 13. -- Howard Olds, one of our oldest¹⁴ and best known citizens, met the call of his maker at 3 p.m. Thursday. Mr. Olds was always active in civil and social life in this community, having served as trustee of the village board of Wyanet for fourteen years and as chief of Wyanet fire department for twenty-seven years, retiring five years ago when he reached the age limit and was voted an honorary chief for life by the members of the department.
“Mr. Olds was born in Wyanet township Aug. 26, 1872, and lived his entire life in the community. He was a member of the hardware firm of Olds & Hamilton for twenty-six years. Mr. Olds served as a helper to his father for fourteen years previous to his acquiring a share in the firm of Olds and Hamilton, after the death of his father in 1901.
“Mr. Olds was a kind and loving father, a pleasant neighbor and a loyal citizen, an enemy to none and a friend to all. Although his health had been very poor for the past few years he worked faithfully until a year ago, when he retired. His passing is a great shock to his many friends in and around Wyanet and he will be missed by all who knew him.
“Funeral arrangements have as yet not been completed."¹⁵
     Another obituary for Howard states: “HOWARD OLDS PASSES AWAY
“Funeral Services Last Sunday Largely Attended
(picture of Howard Olds)
“For the past two or three years we have known that our friend, indeed everybody’s friend, Howard Olds, was suffering from a stubborn ailment. Nevertheless when news passed around last Thursday afternoon that he was gone it was a distinct shock.
“The funeral service last Sunday afternoon from his former home was notable because of the great throng of people who desired to show their sincere regards for him and sympathy for the bereaved family. Father Ring, pastor of St. Margaret’s church, conducted the service, and paid eloquent tribute to the life and memory of his friend. His remarks were based on the 13th chapter of first Corinthians and he showed how in a remarkable degree the life of Howard Olds paralleled that beautiful passage.
“A quartet composed of Mrs. Con Brown, Mrs. J. W. Wyatt, John Calloway and R. C. Prettyman sang appropriate selections, accompanied by Mrs. Lee Oloffson. The floral tributes were numerous and beautiful.
“Preceding his remarks, Father Ring read the following Obituary.
“Wyanet has lost one of its most loved and loyal citizens. Howard Olds has closed his eyes in that dreamless sleep from which there is no awakening on this troubled earth. For months he had calmly and uncomplainingly suffered from a devastating illness which slowly wasted away his strength until Death mercifully relieved him at 3 o’clock Thursday afternoon.
“He paused on life’s highway almost in the morning of his manhood and while the shadows were still falling toward the West. Loved and loving, brother, husband, father, friend, he was taken just at the point where life’s great beauties lay before him.
"During all his life, one of the busiest of men, he always found time to lend a helping hand, and were everyone for whom he had paused to do some loving kindness, to bring a blossom to his grave, he would sleep beneath a wilderness of flowers.
“Howard was the second son of John Hixon and Annabell Krimmel Olds, and was born on a farm three miles south of Wyanet on August 26, 1872. When he was seven years old, he moved with his parents to Wyanet where he lived until his death. He was educated in the Wyanet public school. When he was sixteen years old, he went to Galesburg to learn the tinner’s trade and after three years entered his father’s hardware store in Wyanet to ply his trade. After the death of his father in 1901, he entered partnership with W. H. Hamilton, and from then until about a year before his death continued in the hardware business at the same location. He was forced to retire in June of last year because of failing health.
“All of his life he was active in local civic affairs and took a keen interest in the political affairs of his state and nation. For twenty-seven years he was chief of the Wyanet Fire Department and served on the Wyanet village board for eighteen years. He served two terms as tax collector for Wanet Township. In politics he was a Democrat.
“He was united in marriage at Wyanet with Eva Kennelly on May 12, 1897. To this union were born two children, Justin K. Olds, of Marseilles, Ill., and a daughter, Bernadine, at home.
" Besides his wife and children he is survived and mourned by his mother, Mrs. Annabelle Olds, of Wyanet, one grandson, Richard Olds, of Marseilles, Ill., two brothers Bryant and John C.Olds, of Wyanet, and three sisters, Mrs. Monroe G. Whitney, of Couer d’Alene, Idaho, Mrs. Charles Webster, of Portland, Ore., and Mrs. George Dahl, of Wyanet.
“Howard Olds will be more than missed, not alone by his family but by all who knew him. His life was an exemplification of all that is good and wholesome and kindly. In his home life he personified to a remarkable degree the noblest type of husband, father, brother and son. In his community he was the sort of man to be pointed out as an example of right living to the young generation. He was indeed one of Nature’s noblemen. He sleeps but his memory lives and will continue to live in the hearts of all who knew him as long as love and virtue and faith and righteousness guide our lives. There was -- there is -- no gentler, kindlier, nobler, manlier man."

--------------The following tribute was published below the obiturary -------------------------------
"The Columbian Fire Department held a meeting last Saturday afternoon, at which a committee composed of Willis Hamrick, Wm. L. Golding and Sherman Thompson was appointed to draft appropriate resolutions on the death of Howard Olds. The following was offered for publication:
"Inasmuch as our comrade and former Chief has passed from the activities of this life, and
"Whereas, he was a charter member and for twenty-seven years our honored Chief, and
"Whereas, his life and unselfish service was always an inspiration and most valued help in our work and cause, be it
"Resolved. That we realize that in his passing the community has lost one of its ablest and most respectaed citizens, the Columbian Fire department a member whose worth and words were of inestimable value.
"Resolved. That we tender to his bereaved family our sincere sympathy, with the assurance that we will with them treasure memories of his kindness, justice, and heroism.
