To this union three girls were born and survive, Mrs. George Colburn, Freeman, Mo., Mrs. R.W. Gentry, Winfield, Kansas, and Miss Pinkie of Lexington. Mrs. Chinn died September 20, 1888. Besides his three daughters Mr. Chinn is survived by his father, who is 91 years old, his mother, who is 81 years old, and four grand children.
Mr. Chinn conducted a shoe store in Lexington for many years. He was afterwards a traveling salesman, and had a wide acquaintance in the central west. Mr. Chinn was very much a home man, and was very devoted to his aged parents and three daughters.
