He remained there about two years, after which he came to Woodland, taking up his residence on the corner of Elliott and Walnut streets, where he died.
Mr. Lincoln was a devout member of the Methodist Episcopalian Church. His frankness, his courage, his honesty and his genial courtesy gained for him the respect and esteem of all who knew him. By those who knew him he was well beloved.
He was a good citizen and as a neighbor he was of an openhearted, cordial temperament. He was affectionate as a husband and father and there was no greater pleasure for him than to be in the bosom of his family. His death will be deeply lamented and his loss will be sincerely mourned.
