He was married September 24, 1913, to Jessie May Bourne. To this union one daughter was born, Mary Marjorie, now four months old.
When a small boy he came with his parents to Kansas where he grew to manhood. Code was a fine, pleasant young man; he had a good word for everyone.

We extend our sympathy with the bereaved ones.
