He leaves a wife, two little children, an aged mother, a brother, a sister and many friends to mourn his untimely death.
On Dec. 30th his remains were deposited in the Evergreen cemetery. His parents were among the first settlers of this county. The exemplary life of them and their children needs no comment. The bereaved ones have the sympathy of the community. Sad indeed is the death of one so young and promising.
