Dewitt Clinton Baldwin Obituary

Dewitt Clinton Baldwin, son of William S. and Margarette Baldwin, was
born in Montgomery County, N. C., June the 4th A. D. 1847 died at his
home in Pekin, January 24th, 1888, aged 40 years, 7 months, and 20 
days. He joined the Methodist Church September, 1880 under the ministry
of Rev. C. M. Gentry. He loved to attend Sunday School, and loved to 
attend the gospel; was an affectionate and kind husband and father; 
read his Bible regularly and his dealing with his fellow man was strict
and honest. Always ready to forgive other's faults and to acknowledge 
his own, he was very faithful to his Christian duties and submissive 
to the will of God. During the days of his suffering and as the end 
drew near he said he was going to rest. He leaves a sorrow stricken 
wife and six little children to mourn their loss.
