vital interest in all about him and at
tends daily to his business affairs.
When the weather is not too bad he
walks over to town daily and has no
complaint aside from the fact that he
feels a bit too young at times. Few
men have mastered the philosophy Of
right living so thoroughly or applied
it more practically. None has enjoyed
a sercner old age as a result. He was
born in Caroline county, Va, in 1923
and came to Monroe county in 1882,
vas a gold seeker in California and a
soldier in the wal against Mexico,
many years of his life being devoted
to most strenuous activity which IN
nowise seems to have impaired a WON
derful vitality. May his years in
crease. 1t is good to have him with
