- Jonathan D[anford] BOND was
born in Fayette County, Pa., February 24, 1846,
- and died at his home in Milton, Wis.,
January 2, 1919, being 73 years old.
- On December 18, 1874, he was married
to Miss Martha C. BUNKER, at St. Paul,
- Minn. To them were born three sons,
Major E. D. BOND, of Newport News, Va., Harold H., of
Amindon, N.D., late of the Y.M.C.A. service, overseas, and L.
M. BOND, county agent at Elbow Lake, Minn., all of whom
were privileged to attend the funeral. Besides the three sons,
he is survived by his wife, two sisters, Mrs. J. B. MORTON
and Mrs. J. J. DENNETT, and one brother, S. M. BOND,
all of Milton.
- Very recently, Mr. and Mrs. BOND
went to St. Paul for a visit with their sons, Earl
- and Roy, and the day after their return
their son Harold on his way home to North Dakota from France,
surprised them and spent a few hours with them, thus providentially,
they were all permitted a recent visit with their father.
- A good father, a loving husband, a
generous citizen, a Christian gentleman, a kind
- friend and an efficient member of the
church has gone. We mourn his loss with heartfelt sorrow and
commend his bereaved family to the God of all grace.
- The funeral service was private and
was held at the late home Sunday afternoon. His
- pastor, Rev. F. H. Burdick, assisted
by Pres. Wm. C. Daland, conducted the service. Music was furnished
by a mixed quartet, Professor A. E. WHITFORD, and Howell
RANDOLPH and the Misses Anna PLUMB and Alberta
CRANDALL, and interment was made in the Milton Cemetery.
