DIED.

At his son's near Calvin in Ward 8, Uncle Saulmon Carpenter departed this life
July 26, 1910, at 6 a.m.  His illness was short  -- he was sick only a very
few days. Medicine did him no good   the Lord was calling for him as he is
calling for his children every day.

He was a good Christian, having been a member of the Methodist Protestant
church. He has been a good and true Christian who loved to serve the Lord and
do his Master's will. He wasa true father and loving husband. Everybody loved
"Uncle Saul", as we all called him. Everybody said that what "Uncle Saul" said
was the truth. He had many friends everywhere he went, and, oh, how he will be
missed.  He leaves two sons and two daughters and a host of other relatives
and friends to mourn his loss.  Weep not dear ones, we feel sure he is at
rest.

We do not know his age exactly but he was about 80 years old.
                                                             A FRIEND.
