vania westward to Ohio without money
and on foot; he began life as shoe
maker and worked faithfully at his
trade until better opportunities were
opened to him. The later years of his
life he spent as prosperous and sue
cessful farmer. He has gone through
life enjoying its pleasures and comforts,
raising and educating a large family of
children, and leaving at the end a large
estate In lands and a competence to his
wife and children; this he has accom-
plished by patient industry, persever-
ance and strict business integrity. He
was man widely known in this county
and universally respected and esteemed
Among those who knew him well he
was greatly beloved He was a man of
such generous impulses that he
was always found among those
who support actively and
literally benevolent and charitable en-
terprises. He was a man of such ten
der sympathies that he was foremost in
burdens of the poor and unfortunate
He was in the highest sense a good cit
izen, valuable man in his community;
wise in council, conservative, generous,
honorable, just. He was devoted hus-
band and father, unselish, gentle and
kind. His devotion to his family was
beautifully attested by his heroic effort
during the late war in nursing back to
life his son, who was wounded in the
defense of his country. For months
the son lay in the dreary hospital, with
his life but feeble, glimmering spark,
and with his faithful father as his con-
slant tender nurse and companion The
sons lite was spared by constant watch
tulness and care, and he yet lives to
mourn the loss of his best friend
His integrity was never questioned
The high esteem in which he was held
among his neighbors was attested by the
unusually large concourse of people who
sorrowfully followed the remains to the
cemetery, and assisted in paying the last
tribute of love and respect to the dead.
A good man has passed away and the
people of his community are sad and
sorrowing, but there is much of conso-
lation to his family and friends that he
has left an unsullied character and
name, that his name and benevolent
face will be associated with the pleasant,
happiest memories of the past, and that
he has left bright evidence that he has
only passed from the evening of beau
tiful well spent life here into the full
of the blissful and perfect life
in the home of eternal blessedness and
rest

Held a housing Meeting Last Night
Music by the Drum Corps and
Glee CIub-Speeches by Rich
ard jackson and Captain
Lee Yaryan.

The call for the Blaine and Logan
meeting last evening by the Fifth Ward
Repub lican Club did not contemplate
any thing more than an ordinary ward
gathering, but the fine music made by
the Blaine and Logan drum corps soon
attracteda crowd that neither Hodgins
nor any other mans barn could contain.
There were fully six hundred persons
present, to say nothing of the large
number of ladies and gentlemen in car
riages stationed neal the place of meet
ing. That all might have an opportu-
nifty of hearing the speakers and the
excellent singing of the Blaine and Lo-
gan glee club, stand was erected near
the corner of North Seventeenth and B
streets. After song by the glee club,
which was cheered to the echo, Rich
ard Jackson was introduced and deliv-
cred one of the most logical and con-
vincing speeches that it has ever been
our pleasure to hear He discussed the
issues of the campaign in a manner that
convinced all that he had given his sub
ject thorough study, and spoke forth
the words of his honest convictions.
Mr.. jackson proved himself an able
speaker, and he will be in demand dur
ing the campaign. At the close of his
remarks the glee club sang another
song. when Captain Lee Yaryan re-
sponded TO the call for him and deliv-
cred one of his characteristic speeches.
that caused the best feeling among the
Blaine and Logan boys, and was a fit
ting finale to the successful nights
meeting. The fifth ward Republicans
and their enthusiasm can not fail to
have a good effect upon the Republicans
of the other wards of the city, many of
whom were present.
