On Sunday last the grim tyrant Death came, and with his scythe removed from our midst old uncle Isaac Bean, in the ninety-third year of his age.
He immigrated to this county in 1832, with his parents, from North Carolina, who died and were buried on the old home place, and where he, too, was laid away to rest on Monday last. His wife, who died about seven years ago, is also buried in the same yard.
Mr. Bean was one among the oldest men in this section of country, and one of the oldest pioneers, having resided at one place six miles north of town for fifty one years. He was one of the remarkable men of the age; there breathed no more honest a man than uncle Isaac Bean; he regarded his word equal to his oath, and just as ready to condemn a man for not doing right by his fellowman. He made no profession of christianity, but in practice and principle he was a true christian.
He leaves six grown children, three boys and three girls, all of whom are known to our people. He died at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. M. Tarable, just across the road from his house. As stated, he was buried on his farm beside his wife, father and mother, the latter having died in 1887. Peace to the venerable pioneer's ashes.
