He had been a member of the M.E. church for 17 years and died in the full assurance of faith in God and hope of eternal life through Christ the Lord. His last illness lasted but a few days.
Funeral services were held on Saturday, April 3, by Rev. Cummings assisted by Rev. E.D. Hall, of Mitchell. The good wife and three children will greatly miss the stay and support of the husband and father, but they do not mourn as those who have no hope.
