EIC 1918

The image came from the Missouri S&T archives. The archives also states Geib died of a ruptured appendix in April 1930, while a partial transcript of the cemetery where he is interred alleges his tombstone reads 1929 as the year of death. I am currently trying to resolve this disparity. Another interesting note is that his wife, Madeline, died in 1973, having never remarried in the 44 years since her husband's death. -RB
