He was sick about nine days during which time he suffered a great deal, and his death was a very heavy blow to his loved ones and many friends. Mr. Stewart was a Christian, having professed religion and joined the Baptist church in August 1892, and has lived a consistent Christian life ever since. The day before he died he told his father that he was ready to go if he should be called. He was a brilliant and promising young man and every one mourns his death. GodÕs word is the consolation to the sorrowing loved ones. Look up to heaven where ÒGod shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death; neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain.Ó D.H. Aston Gibtown, Texas The Jacksboro Gazette Thursday, July 20, 1889
