Obituary.

Medaryville Advertiser. - A. Cyrus Prevo was born September 4, 1830, in Tippecanoe county, Ind., and died in Medaryville, Ind., April 18, 1908, aged 78 years, months and 14 days. He leaves four sons, Andrew W;, George D., Frank G. and Arthur C., and one daughter, Jessie Maude Guild, and fourteen grandchildren, one sister, Mrs. Maude Coppess, of Medaryville, Ind., and one brother, James E. Prevo, of Hammond, Ind. He moved to Gillam township, Jasper county, Ind., with his parents in the year 1845 and was one of the pioneers of said township. On Stptember 28, 1854, he was married to Mary M. Coppess, who preceded him in, death a little over a year ago.

In 1857 he was converted and united with the M. E. church and served as class leader at old Independence for years and a church official in some capacity for many years and always lived a faithful and consistant Christian up to his death. His greatest ambition in life was to bless his Children to whom he was greatly devoted; he loved the church and community and was always free and open to stand for the right and could be relied upon as a faithful advocat for anything that would be for the good of others. Mr. Prevo was especially interested in the boys of his acquaintance and had the peculiar trait of character of being a “boy” himself among them and always kept in touch with them, and scores of them now engaged in active avocations of life have a fond and revered memory of Bro. Prevo as their friend and counsellor at times when they needed it most. If a boy mad a mistake in life he was ever ready to help him up and never abandoned him until he got him on the right road.

Since the death of his wife he has been very lonesome and repeatedlj expressed himself as anxious to Join her in a better world and gradually his vitality failed him. Although a great sufferer he did not murmur, and awaited with great anxiety the final summons, “Come up higher.” He was conscious until the last and his last words were “All right, All right!” Uncle Cy is gone, but his life and love will never die, and a hoßt of dear friends and loved ones will cherish dear memories of him. The last sad rites took place last Sunday afternoon at 1:30 from the M. E. church at this place. Long years ago deceased had made the request that Rev. T. M. Guild, who at the present time is superintendent of the Methodist churches of the Richmond district, should preach his funeral sermon. In compliance with that request that gentleman preached the funeral sermon over his old friend an! advisor. He was assisted by Rev. Lynn Bates and John Sebring. Interment followed in the Independence cemetery where the remains were laid to rest by the side of his wife. The family have our heartfelt sympathy in this hour of their bereavement.
