Edward Kersey
Mrs. Ells, of Wheeler, one of the well-known Kersey family of Twenty-Mile Prairie, could not believe the statement of the death of Edward Kersey at the poor house recently could be correct, because she thought no person of that name had lived so long in Porter county. We accordingly inquired of Mr. Hesser, superintendent of the poor-asylum, and he gives assurance that our statement is correct both as to name and twenty years residence, yet he was a man whose name was not so public as to come to Mrs. Ells' notice. We are told a brother of the deceased man lives here now.
