Mr.. Ridings made many friends a.
mong both white and colored by his
pleasant ways. Although not a
Christian he had the kindest regards
for the churches. Born In Lexing-
ton, Mo-, in 1899, he was slave
and when the cry to arms was sent
out In the defence OF the country
and nation, 1t found him early in
the fields, in the civil war and when
this service was performed and bat
tie won. he took unto himself q
companion, Miss Rhoda Beebine. In
a short time they came west where
both have fallen, his wife departed
this life in 1905. Mr.. Riding at the
time of his death was worth $4,000
which he placed In well needed plac-
es. The two colored churches were
kindly remembered with $500 each,
and 500 to the g. A. R. The re-
mainder Of the estate went to bro
theirs, nephews, cousins and nieces.
The family have our sympathy in
their bereavment 4. The floral Of
ferings were beautiful and many.
We only know that thou hast gone,
And that the same returnless tide
Which bore thee from US still glides
on,
And we. who mourn thee, with It
glide.
