Name
Darius Troutman Obituary and Family Listing TROUTMAN, DARIUS Darius Troutman was born June 6 1866, near Rochester, Fulton Co., Ind., and died at the home of his brother, Michael Troutman near Belle Plaine, Kans., Dec. 23d, 1900 after a long and painful illness, his disease being miner's consumption. His illness was borne with singular patience, resignation and sweetness of disposition, for five weeks being a continual grapple with the dread disease. While clinging to life he was surrounded by loving brothers and sisters, his brother William and wife coming from the old home in Indiana, 1,000 miles distant. His sister Myrtle from Dover, O. T. many loving hands were stretched out to hold him back but all loving care and the best of medical skill could not accomplish were without avail. Bowing in weak submission to Him who "doeth all things well" he passed to the better land. The funeral services were conducted by his nurse, Pastor and friend, I. Willey, assisted by Rev. Barron of the M. E. Church and Rev. Miller of the Presbyterian Church. His remains were laid to rest beside his mother in the Belle Plaine Cemetery.
