Their union was blessed with eight sons, four having preceded the father. Deceased was a member of the Church of Christ for forty years. He was a constant sufferer for 18 months. But for the sadness of parting for a while with his loved ones, he said he was ready to go and was unafraid. A noble soul worthy of imitation, a devoted husband and father, has gone from our midst. He was a man who was ever mindful of observing the laws of his country, with a love for his fellowman, unsurpassed by many. As we mourn the loss of our dear husband and father, we carry a mind picture of a great man, who constantly read his Bible, with a view of understanding more fully the richness of the blessings of our blessed Lord, and which tends to lead us onward and upward till we have filled our mission on earth to clasp glad hands forever where no night ever comes, in that beautiful city of God.
