On the 27th day of March, 1920, he was stricken with Organic heart trouble which resulted in his death Saturday morning, April 24th, at 7:30 being 75 years, 8 months, 11 days of age.

E, 102nd Ohio Volunteer Infantry, serving four years and was given an honorable discharge at the close of the war. He ever delighted in narrating to his friends incidents of life in the camp and on the battlefields. As a soldier he gave his country and flag the same loyal support that he gave his family, his friends and community in civil life.

McCrory, the daughter stricken by death four years ago, and the son residing on his farm, 1 1/2 mile east of Fredericktown. With the son and widow, he leaves two grandchildren, a brother, L. C. McCrory, in Springfield, Mo., who is well known in this vicinity. Benjamin McCrory, who passed away six years at his home in Bucyrus, O., was another brother.
