He was born in St. Paul, Minn., 68 years ago, but came to Winterset when a young man. Here he was married to Miss Annie Mardis, and they made this town their home until they moved to Des Moines. He is survived by his wife, and their one son, Charles, Jr.

Funeral services were held at Lillie's funeral home Tuesday, July 2 at 10 a.m. The members of the Masonic lodge assisted with the services and the body was brought to the Winterset cemetery for burial, with the Veterans of the Spanish war having charge of the services at the cemetery.
