DEWITT C. GREEN.
Udall, Kansas.
FROM THE NEWSPAPERS.
[REPORT
FROM “C. A. P.” - UDALL UTTERANCES.]
Winfield Courier, January 6, 1881
An immense crowd was at the Christmas tree at Udall schoolhouse. Smith & Green, of this place, furnished the candy for the occasion, their bid being 2˝ pounds less than any other. They are both energetic, enterprising young men, and deserve a large share of the patronage in and around Udall.
Green, of the above named firm, was looking quite cheerful a few mornings since. When asked by the boys what it meant, he commenced passing around the cigars and at the same time remarked, “Oh, it’s a boy!” which was immediately named James A. Garfield Green.

Drs. Mendenhall, Emerson, and Knickerbocker attended D. C. Green during his sickness.
DIED. Our city is again thrown into a state of gloom by the sudden death of D. C. Green, of the firm of Green & June. Mr. Green had been suffering from a long standing hernia, and on the 12th inst. took violently, rendering a surgical operation imperative, but alas! human skill could avail nought against the grim destroyer and today (the 16th) we commit all that is earthly to man’s last sad resting place. The deceased was one of our best and most enterprising citizens, coming here at the start. He assisted as much, if not more, to the upbuilding of Udall as any of our citizens, with a hand of charity ever open to assist the unfortunate. None came to him for assistance or sympathy that went away disappointed. At the state of our town, he was postmaster and filled the position to the satisfaction of all. He was a member of Mulvane Lodge, A. F. & A. M., and will be buried with Masonic honors. To the writer of this he was a most intimate friend and his loss will be felt by him more deeply than words can express. He leaves a wife and two small children to mourn his sad and untimely departure, who in this hour of their great and sad visitation, have the sympathy of all.
