"To say that Bro. Zenos H. Gurley has been a faithful adherent to the principles of the latter-day work, is but to say what all who knew him can affirm. Sometime last winter Bro. Gurley was attending a meeting at the residence of Sr. Philo Howard, near Batavia, and while there preached his last discourse. He was taken sick before leaving there, and had failed to rally to his former good health, although he was thought to be slowly gaining when the 'reaper of death's harvest' struck him down. He was stopping at the house of Bro. Jesse L. Adams, not far from Joy station, in Mercer County, Illinois, when he died, having been with the Buffalo Prairie saints for some two or three weeks prior to that time. Dennis Jones listed as head of household on the 1880 Kane County, Illinois Census. Casendana listed as his sister.69 "Mrs. Philo Howard (Batavia) sec 26 se 1/4, farmer 183 1/4."70 "Mrs. Casadena Howard, died at the home of her son, Mr. A. Howard, west of this city, Sunday, March 3, 1895 at 6 a.m. aged 65 years. Deceased was taken ill while on a visit in Indiana and was brought home by her son about a week ago, where she was tenderly cared for till death came to her relief. Some time ago she was afflicted with Erysipelas which settled in one of her limbs, and caused her death, gangrene having set in. The funeral was held from the home Monday afternoon at 1:30, Rev J. D. Leek officiating. the remains were taken to Sugar Grove for burial.
