He leaves two sons and two daughters and a widow to mourn his loss. His sons and daughters are all married and only one, J. P. Dunn lives in this Territory.
Mr. Dunn was a prosperous farmer, and had accumulated considerable property, which was all left to his wife.
For many years Mr. Dunn was a terrible sufferer from asthma, never well, but always cheerful and hopeful, full of energy and attentive to his business.
The funeral was held at his late residence was largely attended. An address full of beautiful thoughts and illustrations was delivered by Rev. Dr. Schenck. The Ponca City Quartet, composed of Mr. and Mrs. Hauschildt, Mrs. Fowler and Mr. Stowell, sang some music, making the whole service very impressive and touching. After the serice at the house his remains were laid away in the Odd Fellows Cemetery, where a large number of the friends had gathered to pay their esteemed friend and neighbor.
