James c. Millsap.

James G. Millsp was born in
Jackson county, Indiana, on March
II, 1888, and died suddenly of par
alysis of the heart, at his home in
Grand River township, Decatur
county, Iowa, March 3, 1911, being
at the time of his death ~ years,
II months and % days old. He
came with his parents to Decatur
county, Iowa, in 1853, where he
has since resided, with the excep-
ton of about five years which he
spent in Ringgold county. On
April 8, 1866, he was united in mar
riage to Miss Louisa A. Kaithley, of
Linn county, Mo-, who departed this
life on October %, 1887. To this
union were born six children, all
of whom survive except one who
died in infancy. He was converted
in young manhood and was a charter
member of the Methodist church of
Decatur City, of which he was a
consistent and active member until
his death. Since he settled on his
farm near Elk Chapel over forty
years ago there has been but few
religious services in which he has
failed to take an active part. His
mind was fraught with indepen-
dence, magnanimity' and every
manly virtue. He leaves four sons,
one daughter, nine grandchildren,
six brothers and four sisters to
mourn his departure. The funeral
services were held at Elk Chapel
and was conducted by Rev. Vanatti
and the remains were followed by a
large concourse of Borrowing friends

William A. GraysOn.

William Adams Grayson was born
in Adams county, Penna., Nov. 1,
1921. He was converted and joined
the Presbyterian church when quite
young and remained consistent
member until his death. He was
married to Catharine Nunemaker in
the year 1874. To this union were
born twelve children, three girls and
nine boys, of which six are still liv-
ing, two girls and four boys. The
other six preceded him to the other
world. To these have been added
eight grandchildren to cheer and
enliven the homes to which they be-
long.
Father Grayson's life was long
and eventful one. He was living
near the city of Gettysburg during
that memorable and bloody battle
of the civil war, although not per-
mitted to take part on account OF
physical disability, he was forced to
experience some of the awful hOr-
rors. He was not only an eye wit
ness to this bloody battle but his
home was so situated that bullets
from the guns of both contending
forces were imbedded in the walls of
his home. Father Grayson departed
from this life, March 6, 1911, in the
ninetieth year of his age. Thus an
other of Decatur county's pioneers
has passed to his reward, at the
bidding of the Great Father above.
He has entered into the joys of his
Lord.
Father Grayson's noble christian
life and character has stood for
ninety years, like witness tree on
the border of the promised land and
pointed many way-faring man to
better life, Two generations rise
up and call him blessed.
He was not hewn down as cum
berer of the ground but in a ripe
40 age, like a tree standing in the
Garden of God, full of good fruit,
he delivered up to the husbandmen
an abundant harvest of we'll spent
life. We cannot say too much in
praise of Father Grayson as he goes
to his we'll earned rest in the skies.
The universal exclamation of those
who knew him was, eve loved
him. His body was laid to rest
by the loving hands of his children
and friends, in the Leon cemetery.
In behalf of the family we wish to
express our appreciation and graft
tude to the neighbors and friends
in this hour of trial and grief.
