The Paulding New Era, April 10, 1884
Johny Pool.  

Death has invaded another happy home and selected as a victim Johny Pool, son 
of Squire C.A. Pool, of California district.  This visit by the enemy was 
quite sudden, and did its work quickly.  On the evening of April 7th, 8 p.m., 
Johny breathed his last.  I stood over him and watched death do its work.  It 
seemed to me that I could almost hear the rustling of the wings of angels as 
they pressed in taking Johny quickly off to God.  In an earthly view of the 
case, it would seem a sad thing for one giving such promise of a happy, useful 
life, to die so soon; but He who gave has taken away, and He doeth all things 
well.  I have known Johny from a boy – lived in three hundred yards of him 
eleven or twelve years ago.  He was a good boy.  I left the district, but 
watched Johny.  He continued good to manhood and to death; and I can now say, 
when all is over, his path had as few crooked ways as any, and I believe he is 
today with God.  God often taketh his own to himself early.  We too must die. –
A Friend.
