He joined the New Light Baptist Church and was baptized 10 month, 11th day of 1938. Brother Slaven while waiting patiently on the painful hour of death he told his family he was ready to go home up yonder and asked them all to get ready to meet him, he was a devoted husband and loving father, he leaves here to mourn his passing, his wife and 6 children all of Oneida, Tenn., and a host of relatives and friends. We feel sure that Brother Slaven is resting somewhere today in the great beyond and that our loss is his eternal gain.
