February 1861, Homer, Iowa, Press Clipping

Death of Dr. J. J. Miller



We are deeply pained to record the death of this estimable man, which occurred at Kosta, Iowa County, on the 15th instant. Dr. Miller resided nearly five years at Homer, in this County, and at the time of his death, was only temporarily absent. His health had been poor for several months, but an attack of pleurisy finally carried him to his premature grave. Dr. Miller was a gentleman of fine education, thoroughly honest and upright, and possessed of the most kindly traits of character. He died, as he had lived, a sincere Christian, beloved and respected by all who knew him. He was 37 years of age at the time of his death.
