Perry, ILL.,, Jan. II, 1888, and died at
his home in Ottu1hwa, Iowa, June 16,
1916. The above figures show that he
was granted 7S years. five months and
Ave days for his earthly pilgrimage.
In youth Mr. Tucker learned the ma
chinist's trade, but soon entered the
milling. business, which he followed
over fifty years. 'r.
On reaching his majority the sub
ject of this sketch came to Iowa AMI
dwelt for a time In Oskaloosa. There
, he met and loved Miss Phoebe Ramey,
who gave him her hand in marriage

children were born, namely Mrs.
Bertha Donaldson. Carrizozo, New
Mexico, and Fred B., of Ottumwa.
These with the widow and three grand
children survive. .a
For about quarter of century
Brother Tucker had been a resident of
Ottumwa, and an active member OF
the A. F. & A. NJ, Empire lodge, No
269. The end came peacefully and he
was in possession Of all his faculties
until the last. Just day or two be-
fore his death he sent word to friend

go first.
