IN MEMORY OF J.H. COZART
"God's finger touched him and he slept."
Thus Death, the unwelcome and mysterious guest, whose knock is heard alike at the palace and college door, has again called one honored citizen to "The Palace of the King."

A man has gone from our midst, whom all that know loved and esteemed.

The deceased was born in Perry, Ga., July 18, 1848, professed faith in Christ, united with the Presbyterian Church in Tenn. After coming west he joined the United Brethren in whose communion he lived a constant Christian life, until called from church militant to church triumphant.

He was married to Ada Cuson, in Madisonville, Tenn., February 14, 1872, she having passed to the great beyond January 17, 1907.

To this union were born seven children, one preceded him in infancy, another after reaching womanhood. The remaining five were present at the last sad rites of a loved father.

Also he leaves one brother in Oklahoma, two sisters and several brothers to mourn his loss.

The deceased came west, on March 24, 1886, made the run in the Cherokee Strip, settled near Waukomis, where he died June 17, 1912. While he had been seriously sick for several months, his sudden death was a sad blow to the entire community.

Many friends and relatives accompanied his remains to Waukomis cemetery, where we laid him to await the resurrection morn.
