Joseph Levi Noyes
ONCE RICH, DIES A PAUPER - JOSEPH L. NOYES PASSES AWAY AT THE COUNTY FARM. Said to be of Wealthy Washington Family -Downfall Due to Excessive Drinking. Said to have been, at one time, at the top round of Washington's social ladder, possessed of wealth and everything that money could bring, Joseph L. Noyes, 76 years of age, died late yesterday afternoon at the county farm, south of Carthage, a raving maniac. Two years ago the old man entirely devoid of friends, his wealth squandered, was sent to the county farm to end the remaining days of his stormy existence. Then his mind was beginning to fail him. Ten days prior to his death, he became violent and had to be locked in a room and a guard maintained to watch over him. The ceasing of his relations with his influential family and his subsequent fate in a poor house are attributed to one thing -drink. He was born in Washington of a prominent family. Schools and colleges, said to be the best in the land, he attended and it is said is education was of the finest. At one time he held a highly responsible position in the government service at Washington. There he was prominent socially. Of his fall, he spoke only to a very few. Some 40 years ago he came west, settling in Kansas City. Relations with his family had ceased. He was employed as a pharmacist in Kansas City. There he became acquainted with J. C. Clary, now a prominent man of Joplin. Twenty years ago without funds or friends, practically down and out, due to excessive drinking, he came to the Clary's and made his home until two years ago when he became an inmate of the county farm. It is said that he leaves a sister in St. Louis, the wife of a millionaire, and three brothers in Chicago, all of whom are wealthy and prominent, one of whom was a one time chief of police of that city. James Noyes, the third brother, is said to be a man who stands high in Western Union circles in Washington. This brother was telegraphed to and a reply received to give the boy the best attention and burial possible. As yet it has not been determined when the funeral will be held.
