Thomas. s. Heath.

Thomas S. Heath was born in Knox
county, Tenn, Feb, IS, 1919. died
Jan. 2, 1915, at his home in Butler,
Mo. When quite young he moved
to Kentucky and there grew to man
hood. He came Missouri in 1840,
and was united in marriage to Miss
Jane Hines. They resided for some
time in Miller county, and in 1857
moved to the western part OF Bates
county, came to Butler in 1861 and
under Order No. IL moved to Gin
ton; came again to Butler in 1886 to

loyal to the church, and true to the
trusts placed within him.
To the Heath family was born one

now deceased. Bro. Heath leaves
bereft, one grand daughter, Mrs.
Anna Osborne, one great grand
daughter Andra Osborne, other rela-
tives and many friends. The funeral
was conducted from the Baptist
church Monday afternoon, by the
pastor, R. M. Webdell.
The going of Bro. Heath marks
the departure Of good man. His
life in years, in round numbers spans
century---had he lived till the 10Th
of next month he would have been
So years of age. "Uncle Tommy"
as many called him, cast his first vote
for Martin Van Buren, in 1910, and
has never missed voting at the regu-
lar election since that day. And
since that time he has never failed to
cast his vote for the straight Demo-
cratic ticket. At the time of his death
he was probably the oldest voter
in Bates county
Best of all he was a veteran OF the
cross. His life was a life of prepa-
ration for the future with all of its
fullness Of Joy. He prepared for the
future by giving himself to God and
spending life time in His service.
He lived to bless the world, to ad-
vance the interest of the church, and
to glorify God in his life. There was
no need at last for hasty. prepara-
ton for the future, for he was only
waiting the boatman's call to cross
over to the ever abiding city, in the
eternal mansions of God. When the
summons came he was ready and
quietly passed from earthly scenes to
the heavenly home.
Deceased thought upon death, but
meditated upon life-life eternal.
His work and zeal for the Masters
cause were his greatest work, nor
shall it soon be forgotten. He was
active in the work Of the church,
serving as deacon of the Ohio St.
Baptist church for more than thirty
years. The after glow of such life
will shine in the hearts OF men, and
many will cherish his mnmory.
