Obituary

Charles A. Farr was born November 12th 1881. He was kicked by a horse, which resulted in his having spasms periodically, which resulted in his death December 19th, 1899; aged 18 years, 1 month and 7 days. After appropriate services at his home, December 20th, conducted by Rev. Thomas, the remains were followed by sorrowing friends and sympathizing neighbors to the Young cemetery, and left in the care of Him who is the resurrection and life, who will raise them up at the last day.

Charley, thou hast gone and left us,
And thy loss we deeply feel;
But He who hath bereft us
Can all our sorrows heal.

A. E. Lyons
