months and 24 days. Mr. GREEN was born in
Clearmont, New Hampshire, Sept. I4th, 1872
He removed with his parents to Ohio when
quite young, and TO Gallipolis, Ohio, IN 1927.
He was married to Miss SARAH G. PoRrxR,
August 5th, 1884. The older citizens of Gal
lipolis can testify to the superior qualities of
his mind and heart while he resided among
them.
In 1855 dir. GREEN removed, with his fam
iley, TO Jackson county, in this State. In
1857 he removed to this place where he lived
until God took him to his heavenly mansion.
He came here stranger, but when he died
no man was better known in the county than
he was. His honesty of purpose in every
thing; the acts Of love and kindness which
his noble heart prompted him to perform. en-
deared him TO every one who knew him. He
never made parade of his virtues Even
''his left hand" scarcely knew what his
right hand performed" Never in this world
will it be known how many his life has bless
ed, and how much he has done to alleviate the
ills Of this world His money, his hands. his
sympathy, his all was ever at the disposal of
those who were in mead. Indeed he was lib
eral almost to fault. This, together with
misfortune, before coming to Neoga, has kept
him from accumulating much property. But
q comfortable home, aud to his children he
leaves what is far better than all the wealth
of the Indies, an untarHished character. Our
entire community greatly feels his loss We
all feel that we have lost father or brother
Our best friend, our counselor and advisor IS
gone. But then we feel that our loss is his
gain. He has left sufficient evidence that his
peace was made with his God. We know that
he depended not upon honesty and good
works alone, but upon the merits of Christ for
eternal life. JNO. 3. BRANDT,
