Arnold ]. Winstead was born Oct. 5th. 1881 Departed ths life March 8b. 1915 He was a son of William and Laura Win stead, WF disd during his in- fancy. After the death 5f his p4r.HaS d with his grand plHea $, I. 4 and E. j. CauIder m aa became | man
 On Dee. 1lth 1911. he was married to Miss Maud Fraiser of Prescott, thi@ union being blest with the birth of two children, both boys, Darwin and Arnold ]. Jr. Mother and boys survive him.
 Arnold was a rustling young fellow and early left the home of his grand parents to carve out his own career. Being fearless, he braved many dange and en- countered host of difficulties in the way of his desired goal in life. But in all this he exposed himself too severely and became afflicted with that most dreaded disease, tuberculosis. He ling cred with this disease for about a year until he succumbed to it on the above stated date at the home of Uncle Pet Frasier, his Wife's father. a few miles south east of Prescott.
 His comrades and associates say that a bigger heart never in the bosom of any man. Many an unfortunate has been helped on his way by this mans liberal ity; and the request of hungry tramp was never refus ed. Jesus said these things should not go unreward d. Aside from all this, l am glad to announce to his comrades and friends that he d parted this life trusting in this same Jesus as his personal Saw Tor. During his last illness he desired very much to have His peace, calling and election made sure, " and left a dying testimony to that consoling fact.
 Dear wife, children, relatives and friends, l commend you to Him who, when all earthly help failed, took Arnold by the hand and led him safely across the river of death to a joy yous rest on the other side.
 He has gone from his dear ones, His children and wife Whom he willingly toied for And loved as his life.

Too many of our young people rail in showing considerate atten- tion and to- 1ften do not fully appre iate the seIf-sacrifcing love and benign presence of mother.
