tell you about the other 81" When
Joe was christened, his parents gave
him the name John. His uncle also
gave the same name to his son
| When the latters father died, Joe's
father took him into his home
| Having two Johns was problem
so the late Joseph Reed suggested
that they call j. j. Joseph John
which was done and he was 'Joe" OF
Josie" from that time on. And that
calls to our mind an incident Joe
related, something like this: His
father told Mr.. Reed if he would let
/ Gleason help them shear sheep that
| he and Joe would both help them
in return. Joe went on to relate
/ that Gleason could shear more than
both of them, but when the work
was finished, Mr. Reed slipped
around and paid him all his work
: was worth, telling him not to say
anything to his father about it. And
that leads us to remark that we Of
ten hear preachers say I'VE have
met on this occasion to pay the last
tribute of respect to our departed
friend" And now several years af-
ter the funeral rites of the good
man Joseph Reed and the next day
after that of j. j. Evans, Joe Evans,
through our pencil is paying his
friend and mine a tribute of love
and respect.
