OBITUARY..

EUBANKs AT his home. four miles west Of
jackson. so ohio; January 9tb, Joseph Eubanks'
Mr.. Eubanks was born in Albemarle county
Virginia, Sept. 4, I7ss. In the year 1916 he NOV
ed to Jackson county, Ohio, where, he lived
about one year. During his short stay in Jack
son county he united in holy matrimony to
Catharine Nally, who was also a native Of Vlr-
ginia, and Of the county above named. After
this he moved TO Ross county, Ohio, where he
lived for about years. In 1919 he moved back
to Jackson county again, in which county he
lived until his death. Mr.. Eubanks, when "a
years of age, enlisted In the war of 1872. served
as a soldier until the close of the war, and then
received an honorable discharge. Mr.. Eubanks
was very studiOus i'm his habits and manner of
living. IL can be said of him, as IL cannot be
said of rdany,-he never used strong drink in
any way, shape or form, was strictly an alb
stainer from strong drink He did not use
tobacco I'm any way, neither was he a coffee
drinker. He was hard-working man all his
life He raised a family Of seven children, six
of whom are yet living. He was a law-abiding
citizen, and a good neighbor. Never did he
manifest a disposition to his neighbors, took
all things just as they came, without complain
ing. The neighborhood has lost a good man
one who ever ready and willing to aid 10
the utmost of his ability. Mr.. Eubanks was
strictly religious. He united with the United
Brethren Church in the 40th year of his age, in
which Church he lived a bright and exemplary
Christian until death, was hard student OF the
Bible, which was TO him a source of comfort,
and happiness In his last days. He never en-
tertained any fears as to death, but often spoke
of It as a kind message which would call him
from this world Of sin and sorrow, to a world
OF light and glory. Some two weeks before his
death he said, (he was yet able to go about, 81
win not be with you very long, my time draw
eth Nigh" A short time before he expired he
said to his children, when asked what was |
wanted, 81 only want to get home as soon as I |
can.' So from the manner Of his living, as /
well as from the expressions by him uttered /
when dying fears need not be entertained as to /
his condition IN the future state. He is not /
dead but sleepeth. He shall sleep but not for
forever; there will be glorious dawn. Though
dead he yet speaketh. Be ye also ready, for in
such an hour as We think not the Son of Man

pleased. He would prepare a surprise
for his wife, by connecting his Office and
residence. by means OF this simple little
instrument. He got it all arranged. and
