Mr. Edgington came early to Iowa with his parents, and spent all his life near or in Osage. On May 1, 1888, in Charles City, he was united in marriage to Stella Baker, of that city.
This couple lived happily together until she was taken from him Oct. 15, 1922.

Mr. Edgington lived a quiet, retired life because tempermentally he was quiet and retiring. He was a good neighbor. He is the last of a family of eight children. His nearest relatives are his many nephews and nieces, who mourn their loss.
