The deceased for the past score of years was a resident of Ten-Sleep, Wyoming, where he owned a large ranch. The past several years he spent the winters in Florida.Last autumn he planned on going south but his illness became serious and he continued to fail until the end came on Friday, April 11, at the age of 71 years.
The last services were held on Tuesday at the West Granville Presbyterian Church and his remains were laid at rest in the cemetery close by. Surviving him are his wife, Nora M.
