He was a man of sterling character, a genial and most accommodating neighbor, an affectionate son and brother, a most kind and loving hus- band and father, ever seeking the welfare and happiness of his family. Though not a member of the church, yet he was a regular attendant, al- ways interested in the services. He manifested deep interest in the affairs of the church, and was a liberal giver towards its support. He will be greatly missed by the whole community, sincerely .mourned by his wife and daughter, who have the fullest sympathy of all, and also by his two sisters and brother.
