Died, at his home in Jamestown township, Indiana, Nov. 17, 
1896, Charles Harvey Collins, aged 57 years, 7 months and 7 
days.  Mr. Collins' parents were among the early pioneers that 
came from the state of Vermont and settled in Jamestown 
township, where he was born April 10, 1839, and where he 
resided as a farmer most of his lifetime, and laid up a 
competence for himself and family.  He was married to Lucy 
Carroll June 18, 1871, who with four sons and two daughters 
survive him, and who carefully and lovingly cared for him 
during his long and painful illness.  Funeral services were 
held at the house, Rev. Sumwalt officiating, and he was laid 
to rest in Jamestown cemetery. 
"Friend after friend departs; Who hath not lost a friend?
There is no union here of hearts, That hath not here an end."
