In Memoriam

John H. Caldwell died April 11th, 1906, and his body was laid to rest at 
Ephesus Primitive Baptist church, April 12th.  He was born in Arkansas Jan. 
7th, 1860 and move to Talbot County with his parents when he was 7 years old.  
He was a son of Mr. David and Mrs. Margaret Caldwell.  Just as he was grown his 
father died and left him with a widowed mother to help care for his younger 
brothers and sisters, which duty he faithfully performed.

He lived most of his life in Talbot County.  On August 8th, 1888, he was 
married to Miss Emma Russell.  They lived happily together until the time of 
his death.

He was of a bright, cheerful disposition and made friends wherever he went.  He 
numbered them by the score.  He liked to visit his neighbors and friends and 
enjoyed their company.  Everyone that visited his house received a hearty 
welcome.  He was never too busy to visit the sick and help nurse them, and 
always attended burials whenever he could.  He never united with any church, 
but we feel assured that he is at peace with God, and with beckoning hand is 
now waiting and watching the loved ones of life.  In his death his wife has 
lost a kind and affectionate husband, his mother a dutiful son, his brothers 
and sisters a loving brother, and the county one of its best citizens.

We all miss him, but we would not call him back, for we know that God doeth all 
things well, and that our Heavenly Father is too wise to err.  We will only 
think of him as gone before awaiting some sweet day when loved ones and friends 
shall meet again, and God’s dear children, freed from fever, pain and tears, 
shall rest forever in our Father’s House.

A Friend
