444 Death of an old citizen.
Correspondence Danville News.
We are sad to state the fact of the death of David Cosat, familiarly known as "Uncle Davey", which occurred last Friday at 2 o'clock p.m. The funeral was preached at Union Church last Sunday, to a large and attentive audience, by Rev. Oscar B. Gravat, from the 19th Psalm and 11th verse "Morever is thy servant warned, and in keeping of them there is great reward."

To attempt to give even an outline of the sermon would seem to be a utter failure on my part, so that I will only say that he dwelled on the w9th Psalm some time and then turned to the precious promises contained in the 21st chapter of Revelations.

After the funeral sermon the Rev Hubbard spoke a few words to the afflicted family, and the casket was opened for the friends to take a last look at the remains, then it was conveyed to the wagon by the pall bearers, and was taken to the Fairchild Graveyard for interment. Owing to some misunderstanding not as many followed as intended. The community joins in sympathy for the friends of the deceased, who have gone on before them.

David Cosat was born in Mercer county, Kentucky, October 10, A.D. 1812; came to Illinois in the spring of 1834, where, on January 14, 1836, he was married to Nancy Truax, by whom he became the father of 13 children, 4 sons and 9 daughters, of whom 7 preceded him to the spirit world. Was married again January 15, 1880, to Mrs. Sarah A. Cox, who still survives him. He obeyed the Gospel and became a christian in 1836 in which faith he lived till February 26, 1886 , when he gently and joyfully passed away, aged 73 years, 4 months and 16 day.
March 2, 1886. Capitolia.

447 Death of James Yeazel
Died near Homer, January 13, about 10 o'clock p.m., James Yeazel, aged 70 years, 10 months and 12 days. "Uncle Jim,' as he was familiarly known, was born near Springfield, Ohio. He was married to Mary Maria Spencer, Sept. 7, 1837. They lived happy together until March 9, 1867, when she was called to meet her Savior. In their 30 years to wedded life, twelve children came to bless their union, seven of whom survive, viz: John and William, who live near East Lynn; Abraham and Inez, who reside in Nebraska; and Abigal, Alice and Mathew, who reside in and near Home, all of whom are married. "Uncle Jim" was one of the oldest pioneers. He came to Illinois 48 years ago, locating one and a quarter miles west of Homer, on the family on which he lived until his death. He was quite successful in the accumulation of this world's goods, and has long been considered one of Homer's wealthiest farmers and stock raisers. His residence, a substantial two-story brick, is one of the best in the county. Two brothers, Jacob and David Yeazel, and two sisters, Sidney Crabell and Sally Smith, survive him, the first named sister having reached the advanced age of 90 years and the second 73 years. The two brothers have also reached a ripe age. James Yeazel was married to Mrs. Elizabeth Babb, in May, 1871; two children was the result of this union. He was not a member of any church. His funeral was preached at the family residence by Rev. J.H. Colwell, at 10 o'clock Saturday, and his remains were laid to rest in the Old Homer cemetery. Thus another old pioneer of Champaign county, from the few who remain, has been called to meet his reward.

449 Death Summons Mrs. M. L. Yeazel Sunday Morning
The Homer Enterprise
Friday, March 6, 1925, page 2

Death summoned Mrs. M. L. Yeazel about 9 o’clock Sunday morning. Mrs. Yeazel had been in poor health since 1920 and shortly after she and Mr. Yeazel left the farm west of town, she suffered a stroke of paralysis. She has been bedfast since last Christmas.
Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 from the home F. E. Birkett, pastor of the Presbyterian church being in charge. Interment was in G.A.R. cemetery.
C. A. Morehouse, accompanied by Mrs. Morehouse sang “Shadows” that number being the only music to be rendered.
Those carrying flowers were Mrs. J. W. Tudor; Mrs. N. G. Foreman; Mrs. F. M. Conkey; Mrs. Nelle Huff; Mrs. Ralph O’Neil’ Mrs. C. E. Johnson; Mrs. Ray Salladay and Mrs. Fred Hall.
Pall bearers were nephews of the deceased, namely: Eugene and Robert Hall; Ralph O’Neil; Howard, William and Kenneth Smith.
The following obituary was read at the service:
“Mrs. Matthew L. Yeazel, formerly Miss Julia Elizabeth Smith was born at Danville, Illinois, May 3 1859 and died at Homer, Illinois, Sunday, March 1, 1925, at the age of 66 years, 10 months and 28 days. The deceased had been in ill health for several years following a stroke of paralysis and during the past few weeks she had been in a critical condition. She suffered much but bore her afflictions with great courage and patience. She fought a tremendous battle for life itself and only as the end drew near was she willing to admit that she was engaged in a losing battle. All that mortal hands could do was done to ease her sufferings but now she is at rest where there is no more pain. The thoughtfulness of her kindred and friends was very consoling to her and she was indeed grateful for their continued expressions of love and affection.
She died as she had lived with a strong, triumphant faith in her Lord and Savior. She joined the Presbyterian church of Homer when a child and continued in active cooperation with its varied activities until incapacitated because of sickness. For years she served as organist in the Sunday school and church. Her memory will be precious to all who knew her and her loss will be keenly felt, not only by the immediate kin but by a large number of friends who knew her only to love her.
On October 9, 1879 the deceased was married to Matthew L. Yeazel at Homer, Illinois. Her husband still survives. Four children were born to this union, all of whom are still living except one, Jennie A., who died in infancy. Mrs. Estella J. Havard lives in Homer; Mrs. Nellie M. Davis in Sheridan, Wyoming and Mrs. Lelia I. Johnston near Homer.
The deceased leaves also eight grandchildren, namely: Mrs. Ruth Elliott of Homer, Illinois; Helen Havard of Homer, Illinois; Lawrence Havard of Huntington Park, California; Julia Davis and Catherine Davis of Sheridan, Wyoming; Julia Nell Johnston, Mary and Francis Anne of Homer, Illinois. There is too, one great grandchild, Phyllis G. Elliott of Homer. Besides these the deceased leaves to mourn her loss, two sisters, and three brothers, namely, Mrs. Mary S. Poisell, of Los Angeles, California; Mrs. Jennie Wamsley of Eagle Rock, California; William H. Smith of Homer; Charles M. Smith of Danville and Harry J. Smith of Taft, California.
