[People’s Press, 3 April 1900]
The sad news was received in town last week of the death of John Karr, which occurred in Kansas City, Mo., where Mr. Karr has resided for several years. Mr. Karr was an old and well-known former citizen of this place. When this village was incorporated, in 1870, Mr. Karr was elected reeve, and the following named gentlemen were the council: E. Furry, Thos. Greenwood, Chas. H. Carter and Jacob North. All of the above gentlemen have since passed away but Mr. Furry. Mr. Karr preceded R. Smith in the New York store, having run a general store there for some years. Mr. Karr visited friends here a few years ago. He was twice married, his first wife being a sister of Mrs. Robert Smith of town. Two daughters and one son survive him.
