 It was the writer's good fortune to have known Mir Cox long and well, and our admiration for him increased as the years passed by Few men within our knowledge have come so nearly measuring up to the standard of true manhood. He was a man in the broad sense of the term, generous, kind and ruggedly honest.
 His last words were expressive of peace in God and willingness to depart and be at rest with Him. His cheerful, helpful life; his devotion to his wife and family and kindness to everybody will long finger as a fragrant memory in the home which his presence bright ened and which death has now dafken- ed. Though he IS gone his record has been made and will remain with us as lasting treasure. His life was gentle, but like the still waters it was deep. In his heart of hearts he carried those he loved and his hand was never weary, l his step never failed in caring for and minlsterlng to those who were in any way dependent upon him.
