Notes - Deceased came to Illinois with his parents in 1865, living near Sailor Springs until manhood, and has lived in Clay county the rest of his life.
He attended college at Lincoln, Illinois. He was a farmer and stock raiser, taking great interest in his profession.
When only a boy he was deprived of his hearing, thus handicapping him in many ways. Yet he was always jolly and happy.
He suffered a stroke of paralysis, April 14, 1918, and never fully recovered from its effects, but from that time on he was a changed man, always so patient and kind.
While thus afflicted he had a dream, and dreamed that he went to Heaven and saw Bro. Lingenfelter. His wife asked him if he had made any arrangements about going to Heaven. He answered: "You don't know what I've done." Later on, he said to his wife: "Are you going to Heaven?" She replied, "I hope so." "Well." he replied very firmly, "I'm going to Heaven"
He was exceedingly fond of his three grandchildren.
