Standard Mr. Chas. B. Standard, a very prominent farmer of Monroe County died at his home on the morning of the 23rd inst. Surrounded by his family and loved ones, he quietly breathed his last about 10 o’clock. He was buried at the Paran church cemetery the day following. No man was ever more missed by his family and friends than Mr. Standard will be. All who knew him will miss his jovial face and elastic step. Never was there a man who loved a friend ore or more devoted to his family than was he. He had two grandchildren to whom he was perfectly devoted. Mr. Standard was born and reared in Monroe county together with three other brothers and two sisters all of whom have outlived him, he being the youngest of the six, having died at a premature age. He married Miss Viola Gilmore while in early manhood. He, with his wife and daughter has for sometime been a consistent member of the Methodist church and it is not without hope that we give him up. He had a very severe spell of Lagrippe last spring from which he never fully recovered, developing finally into Chronic Gastrition, then into cancer of the stomach from the effects of which he died. He leaves a wife, one child, Mrs. Ollie Freeman, two grandsons, three brothers and two sisters besides a host of friends and other relatives to mourn his death.
