DEATH OF A PIONEER OF OLD BOSTON DAYS
John A. Oliphant, Early Citizen of This County, Later Prominent in Oklahoma, Died Last Saturday.
Dispatches tell of the death of John A. Oliphant, prominent citizen and ex-Police Judge of Tulsa, Oklahoma, died the 19th inst., at the age of 83 years. He passed away at a hospital in Los Angeles, after quite a long illness. His home for more than 25 years had been at Tulsa, Oklahoma, but since the death of his wife two or three years ago, he had lived with a daughter most of the time. He is survived by three married daughters. His wife died some time ago and a baby daughter died in the early years of their married life.
Mr. Oliphant was born in Missouri in 1848, served in the Union Army in the Civil War while yet a young boy, came to Kansas in 1870 and was with the Osage Mission party that founded the town of Boston in Old Howard county times in 1871. He studied law and engaged in practice, and at the division of Howard county he located here at Howard City, where in 1880, he married Miss Martha Greer who was a primary teacher in the Howard schools. He took a short law course at Ann Arbor, and continued to practice in Howard till about 1885 when he removed to Pratt, Kansas, later going to Texas. At the first opening of Oklahoma "he made the run" and settled at Guthrie. Later when the strip opened he settled at Perry and was elected to the Territorial legislature and afterward was appointed receiver of the U. S. Land Office at Mangum. In 1904 he moved to Tulsa and made it his permanent home.
Mr. Oliphant prospered and engaged in many activities. He was an independent oil producer, real estate operator, newspaper owner and dabbled in several other lines and accumulated some valuable city properties.

DEATH OF DR. OLNEY
After months of Suffering Dr. F.S. Olney Passes Away
Dr. F.S. Olney died in this city at 3:10 p.m., Tuesday, December 28, after a long and painful illness--a malignant disease of the stomach, perhaps of a cancerous nature. He has been confined to his room at Mrs. K. Matthews, ever since October, and his sufferings have been very severe, the greater part of his illness making it necessary to administer opiates to allow sleep or rest in any degree.
Dr. Olney was about 60 years of age, we cannot learn the precise date of his birth, and has lived in this county since 1871. He is known to almost every citizen of the county, his extensive medical practice bringing him in contact with all.
We can believe, truthfully say that Dr. Olney will be missed by a larger circle of friends and patrons than almost any man in Elk county. He leaves one son and one daughter.
His funeral was held today. (Thursday) at the Howard Baptist church, pastor Carey conducting the service, the masonic fraternity having the burial rites in charge.
We will next week publish a more appropriate and extended obituary.
Howard Courant -January 28, 1898
(We have not been able to procure as complete and authentic a sketch of the life of Dr. Olney as we had hoped. The following is gathered from many sources, and while it may not be absolutely correct in some details, we believe it is mainly reliable--Editor Courant)
FRANKLIN SOBIESKI OLNEY was born in Potter co. Pa., on June 21, 1839. He died at Howard, Kas., December 28, 1897. His father's name was Ephriam Z. Olney; his mother's maiden name was Lydia O. Thompson. His mother died when he was a boy, his father marrying again several years later.
He came to Kansas first in 1857, settling in Osage co. He experienced the privations and hardships of pioneer life and life on the plains, and made a trip or two to Santa Fe with an ox train, freighting merchandise.
In about 1859 he returned to the east and according to a short biographical sketch in Andreas History of Kansas, began the study of Medicine. When the war broke out he enlisted in the 46th Pennsylvania, the "Bucktail Regiment." He served something over a year when he was discharged on account of bad health. Later he finished his medical studies at the Winchester Va. Medical College, and again came to Kansas.
In 1868 he settled at Eureka, opened a drug store and practiced medicine. He also engaged in the manufacture of several proprietary medicines and remedies. In 1872 he removed to Boston, Howard co., and in 1875 to Elk Falls, and from there to Howard in 1885.
Dr. Olney has ever since he settled in this county had an extensive and successful practice, and has always been a popular physician and surgeon.
Of Dr. Olney's first marriage little is known. He once told us that his first wife died at Osage City over thirty years ago and that they had a little babe which also died. Some years later he was married to Mrs. Carrie Shaw, from whom he was divorced in 1888. To this marriage were born a daughter, Mabel, (now Mrs. Harry Hassard) and a son, Arthur. In 1890 he was again married to Miss Minnie Matthews. They were since divorced.
Dr. Olney's life while a busy, hardworking one, was turbulent and in many ways unhappy. His domestic life was especially so.
But his greatest trials and troubles were of another nature. He has been twice accused and once tried for capital crimes, though the almost unanimous sentiment of this community was and is that he was innocent, and was the victim of a cruel and revengeful conspiracy. But these and his family troubles greatly harrassed him, and undoubtedly seriously injured his mind and health.
His final illness was painful and his sufferings very great. His death was due to a cancerous disease of the stomach.
Very few are qualified to judge the character of Dr. Olney. He had faults. They are known to all who knew him. He had many virtues and numberless good traits. There never was a kinder, more generous or charitable man than Dr. Olney. He was always ready to minister to the sick and suffering, never seeming to reckon as to their ability or disposition to pay for his professional services, and he once told us he had owing to him in this county and community $20,000 for medical attendance which he never expected to be paid. To his friends he was true, and to those he loved he was most lavish in his affection and generous with his purse. He was rigidly honest in all transactions of business, and had he been as vigorous a collector of what was due him as are some physicians and business men, he would have been comparatively a rich man. He was public spirited and progressive, and was always a liberal subscriber to any measure calculated for the improvement of the city or the building up of any industry.
As has already been said, Dr. Olney will be missed by a larger circle of friends and patrons than would any other professional or business man in Elk county. The hundreds, yes, thousands of families whose sick he has tenderly and carefully treated; whose babes he has ushered into the world; and those whose loved ones he has nursed in their last illness--all, and many, many more will mourn his death.
We are told by his step-mother, Mrs. L.M. Olney, who was with him in his dying moments, that he assured her he had made his peace with God and that he was entirely innocent of the crimes which had been charged to him, and he told her that in this full knowledge of the fact that he had at most, but a few hours to live. She spoke of him tenderly saying, "Frank was a dutiful son to his parents and was always good and kind to me."
Dr. Olney was a member of the I.O.O.F., the A.F. & A.M., the G.A.R. and the A.O.U.W. societies, carrying $2,000 life insurance in the last named order. He had served Elk co. twelve years as coroner, and was twice mayor or Elk Falls.
