DEATH OF RICHARD COLE
(s/o original settler of Lauramie Twp, before it was named, first called Cole Twp.)
Lafayette Newspaper, June 14, 1881. (Stockwell Gleanings)The Venerable Richard Cole, whose illness we mentioned last week, died at his residence on Attica street Monday, the 6th, at 4 o'clock p.m. He was buried on Wednesday morning at 10:30. Services by the Rev. J. L. Boyd, at the Methodist Church.

IN MEMORIAL
Richard Cole, whose death took place on Monday at his home in Stockwell, was born in Dearborn county, Indiana, April 30, 1806. He had for years been seriously afflicted with kidney infection and from which, for fourteen months passed, confined him to his home until death at 4 p.m. of day named. He was married to Anna Frist, March 20, 1827, with whom he lived a happy live till her death, December 12, 1834. By this marriage there were four sons, Hon. J. W. Cole, John F. Cole, Isaac Jackson Cole, and William Cole. Isaac died in infancy; William died at Indianapolis at the age of 43, leaving four grandchildren to the guardianship of the subject of this sketch. John F. Cole died in Stockwell on the third day of April, 1876, leaving a widow and eight children. Richard Cole was married to his now bereaved wife, the sister of his first companion, Hannah Frist, Nov. 5, 1835, and led a happy married life forty-five years.

He emigrated to Lauramie township in 1823, building his cabin on the Cole, now a western suburb of Stockwell and owned by J. Blickenstaff. Some forty years ago he united with the Methodist Episcopal church, at what was known as George's Chapel, one and a half miles west of Stockwell, now occupied as a residence on the Armstrong Ross place. He has since been a respected and liberal member of the church at Stockwell, quiet in his professions but serving God by principle; a reader of the religious press and the secular of his political choice, the former the Western Christian Advocate of Cincinnati, the Courier and Indianapolis Journal, a subscriber of these for many years. As a citizen of Stockwell, he identified himself with its history and progress, more especially its former educational progress. When a Trustee of the Collegiate Institute, he was ever ready to pay his share from his private resources of all deficiencies and demands to maintain it, according to his ability. He was uncompromising in his convictions against what he thought was wrong, and had a holy horror against the possibility of a saloon ever entering the town.

The father of four sons, seventeen grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren, most of whom live, he has of late moved among us as a patriarch. To the third generation he is known to be missed. He died in spiritual readiness, saying: "I am ready." Rev. J. L. Boyd preached a brief but interesting and practical discourse, and though the morning was inclement, a large concourse of people was present to aid in laying him away in the Cole Cemetery, north of Stockwell.
The pall bearers at the funeral of Richard Cole, were: Henry Wells, Thomas O'Neal, E. Wilson, W. Bartholomew, E. N. Cooper, and Armstrong Ross. Warren Rash and wife, the latter the adopted daughter of Richard Cole, returned to their home at Linden the last of the week. They have been here for some time at the his bedside.
