For several years he has been in a declining state of health and for a number of months has been unable to attend the services of the church, but his interest was not lessened thereby and his Christian faith was maintained until the end, when he was called to his reward.The funeral service was conducted by the Rev. H.G. Wilcox at the Methodist church Friday morning at half past ten o'clock.The remains were shipping to Farragut, Iowa, Saturday morning for burial. His sons accompanied the body.
