Ohio, where the family resid. , ed until 1840, when he cam? to this county, where he has since been a worthy resident. When he settled here ! in the woods his sole possessions; were a three_year_oid colt, an ax and a rifle. By hard work and thrift he managed to accumulate a competence for his old age. Misfortune seems to >avg attended his domestic life. He , '-as married tsar times and in each i instance the tie wax severed by the, hand of death. His first wife. Marg. t aret Crosier, whom he married in June. 1844. passed away one year later j the following July. He married Elizabeth McConnehey August 3. 1846. with

His last matri. ‘ monial venture was in August, 1831 to ; Lucinda Harkiess. who preceded him I to the other wer.d April 4. 1906.

He united with the Methodist Episcopal • church when but a child, and after | locating in the vicinity of Union j Chapel U. B. church, transferred his membership to that church, in which he has since been a faithful, consistent, devoted Christian worker, dischareing the various obligations of i a church official. For fifteen consec i. I rive years he performed the ardnus task of a steward and always manag. ed to have an acceptable report. He : delighted in rehearsing his many ex. periences in gathering up “quarter, 1 age.” with which to meet the expense ‘of the quarterly conferences and i seemed to regret that age and infirmity had incapitated him for the task. ’. He rejoiced in all that he had been able to do for the church, and urged as his last message to the world that others be faithful and true to integ. rity, Christ and the church. ji About a week before the end came, . he gave unquestionable evidence of j his conscious acceptance srith God when his pastor and a few neighbors r met with him for prayer. He testi. , fied to God’s goodness and mercy and r joined in singing “The Home of the ? Soul.” When the song ceased, he clapped his hands and said . "I wan*, to go! I want to go!” >.
