s/o John Tosh Sr. & Margaret Johnson

f/o Thomas, Francis, Elizabeth, Nancy, Rilah, John, Martha, Zilpha, James, Hardy, William, Jeptha & Lucinda

Fell asleep in Jesus at his home near Christian Chapel, Carroll County, Tenn. Oct 3, 1876, my dear old father Arthur Tosh, aged 68 years 1 month and 26 days. Apparently well, while chopping on a log he fell suddenly dead, no one being present but his youngest son. He became a member of the Church of Christ in early life. He was always kind and affectionate, teaching his children by precept and example. He leaves an aged companion and 12 children to mourn their loss. He was the father of 13 children, 12 of whom have become members of the body of Christ. We sorrow not as those who have no hope.

Oh how important that we watch, have our lamps trimmed and burning, for we know not the hour when we may be called hence.

"Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth, Yea saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors, and their works do follow them."
