years.  Eleven months after being discharged from the army he was attacked
by tuberculosis, for the past nine months he has been bedfast at the home
of his sister.  Everything was done that loving hands could do to restore
his health, but, when his friends and relatives saw that that could not be
done they did all they could to make his stay here on this earth as
pleasant and happy as possible.
Four months before his death he made a confession of faith and was
baptized into the Church of Christ.  He was not physically able to go to

sisters, Mrs. Cora Carpenter and Mrs. Lula Stanley of Kansas City and Mrs.
