High Point

Charles Orville Talbott, the son of Thomas and Susan Rankin Talbott, was born on a farm just south of Greencastle, April 2!t, 1X40. He was the last to survive in a family of

eight children.

His parents were sturdy pioneers of Putnam county, so the entire life was sp<-nt in and around Greencastle. He lipped quietly away at the home on Hanna Street at 8:30 a. m., December 17, 1028, age 82 years, 7

months, 18 days.

Hi was married July 13, 1870.to | Mary P. Hathaway and to this union were born five children, Frank, Harry, Lelia, Susie and Tom who died

March 1, 1025.

Tlie father never seemed to recover from this grief. Since that time his health has gradually failed and ! with the loss of his eyesight he be- I came more and more attached to the I home. He took his bed December 2, being thus confined for two weeks. | Besides the widow and four chil- i dren, he leaves four grandchildren, ; Harrold and John, sons of Harry H. Talbott and Mary Louise and Chesf- ( r o' Longview, Washington, children of Frank A. Talbott. One great grandchild Jimmy Talbott was hi. particular pride and joy. He was associated for a number of years with the Cole Punrip and Lightning Pod Co., then later went into business for himself that In followed until his last illness. His business took him all over the county and therefore hr was widely known and well known by a tige circle of acquaintance* He was a charter member of the local lodge of Ben Hur. Ho was interested in all good things. He loved growing things and the choicest offerings' from his garden found their way into the homes of the sick and the needy. His was a sympathetic heart tjiat always went out to tho.-e who were in need. His deeds of kindness to those who were sick or in trouble will always be cherished by a wide circle of people whom he helped. Unpretentious and plain was his life, thing what he could. His patience was a marvel to those who knew him best.
