He is survived by his wife, two brothers, two sisters, five children and one grandchild. The children are Mrs. Violet MURRAY, Fairfield; Rex and Max, Chicago, Ill.; Mrs. May COOKE, Glendale, Ia., and Ray of Stockport, Ia.

He was formerly a resident of this county, but had lived at Stockport, Ia., for many years, coming to Fairfield last October to make his home.

This is the first time the family circle has been broken and the loved one will be greatly missed in the home.
