Death came to Andy Johnson at 2:45 o'clock Friday morning, June 14th. For a 
number of years his health was impaired.  At times he seemed better, but the 
ebbing of life's tide was always greater than its flow, and brought him nearer 
to the end.  Notwithstanding he kept up and spent the last Monday of his life 
at his post as county commissioner at the court house in Paulding.

The funeral was held, Sunday, June 16, in the M.E. Church at 2:00 p.m., the 
pastor, Rev. C. D. Chiles, conducting the services Interment in Maumee 
Cemetery. (Antwerp, Ohio)

Mr. Johnson was interested in social as well as the business world.  While 
health permitted, farming was his vocation.  For a number of years he was one 
of the county fair board, served as trustee of his-Carryall_township and at 
last was serving as Paulding County Commissioner.  In all of these he was 
highly esteemed and a useful member.
