He had been suffering with heart trouble for more than a year but did not consider the situation serious until April of this year when he had an attack while at his business. He seemed to get better and persisted in being at his place of business and waiting on everyone who came into the store. During the last few weeks he seemed to have more frequent attacks and passed away quickly, leaving the town and the surrounding country and the host of friends throughout the country to mourn his leaving.
The funeral was from the home, Thursday, November l7, Rev. Gray having charge at the house and preaching the sermon. The Masonic Lodge took charge at the grave.
