During his days of health he was a man of activity and was always employed at some kind of work until a few years ago when his health began to fail and he was compelled to give it up, since that time he has borne this sickness with great patience and was never heard to murmur or complain. His funeral services were conducted from the Baptist church at Waverly, Sunday, Dec. 23, by W. M. Rhoads, of Upper Alton, and interment was made in East cemetery.
