Monett, Mrs. Geo. Spears and Mrs.
Chas. Foster of Caldwell, Kansas, and
Mrs. Pearl Amber, who passed away
February II, 1917 and one sister Mrs.
Laura Russell of Lockwood.
Mr.. Winton was raised in a parson-
age home, surrounded by christian
principles that influenced his after
life to it's close, and it was through
his life and prayers that each of the
children were brought into the fold of
Christ and are now living christian
lives. Mr.. Winton was good and
useful man, honest and conscientious
in all his dealings, and was held in
very high esteem by all who knew
him. He was the same manly man
both in public and private life. But
it was in his home that his princely
character showed at its best. He was
most devoted husband and father
and leaves to mourn his departure his
wife, five children and fifteen grand
children and one sister.
The world is all the richer by the
lives Of such men as Mr.. Winton but
he heard the call, and gone out and
