died at his home at Meeting Street,
and on Sunday 20, was buried at

attack of influenza caused his death.
Stevens Creek church is one OF the
best known, and used to be one Of
the most largely and widely attended
churches, so this faithful member is
well known. Mr.. QUITS was one OF its
best members and no matter the
condition of the weather, he was al
ways there and was always to be seen
on the front pew. He was man IN
whom there was no guile, and he was
gentle and kindly. He was not a
strong, robust man, in some ways and
did not mingle very much with the
outside world, so his home and his
church were all in all to him. The
church and neighborhood will miss
him, for he loved them all.
