He said yes he was ready and wanted to fall asleep in Jesus. On Sunday night before he was taken with his last sickness in his sleep he work his wife up singing, "We'll Wait till Jesus Comes," and in the morning when she spoke to him about the singing he said he knew he sang that song in his sleep because he woke himself up singing.
He now at rest with Jesus has gone.
He has left us here to mourn,
Yet we should think of his blessedness
He now walks the shores of god
Where he will welcome every one.
He rests in mansions brighter far than earth.
Where time shall have no end.
Where death can never come again
No parting knell can ring.
Funeral services at Friendly Grove church, Oct. 13th conducted by Rev. Silas Adams after which the remains were laid to rest in the Adams cemetery near the church by the order of Masons of which he had been a member for almost thirty-seven years.
The family extend their thanks to their many friends and neighbors for their kindness during his sickness and death.
