Obituary

Father Allen was converted and joined the Methodist church when but young in years, being one of the pioneers of the old Elm Grove church, and living an examplary (exemplary) christian life in the same, always ready to give his support to the church liberally, and as such will be greatly missed in the church.

Father Allen was a good citizen and neighbor always ready to lend a helping hand to the needy. But while we shall miss him as a citizen, and in the home and church we realize that he has gone to join the church triumphant, where there shall be no more separation of loved ones and no more aches or pains, which he endured so patience in his affliction.
