He was a zealous member of the church and he loved the gospel of Christ, the only hope of the world.
He was the oldest of 10 living children, five brothers and four sisters – Mrs. M. M. Hazelrigg, Mr. Jno. L. McComick, Mrs. S. M. Young, Mrs. A. S. Hillix, Thos. Ficklin, John Ficklin, Robt.

The services were conducted by Mr. T. J. Hasty and Mr. Thos. Ficklin, a brother of the deceased. The interment was in the city cemetery. Many relatives from a distance, and many friends and acquaintances attended the last sad rites of a man universally respected, esteemed and loved. Truly a good man has gone from our midst and one that will be much missed. The bereaved wife and relatives have the earnest sympathy of all. May the life of the deceased be an example to and for the living.
