the best man and the most consistent
Christian that L have ever known.
He has been dead for twenty years.
Mother followed him to their mutual
reward about two years ago. No
children we're ever blest with better
parents. There are but three of US
left-namely: Mrs, James B. Welsh

New Albany, Indiana, for four years;
then for nine years pastor here in
Kansas City; afterward pastor of the
church in Wichita Falls, Texas; and
finally returning to this city at the
outbreak of the Worlds War.
L wonder if you would care to part
with the old cradle? Sam and Leila
