He had been living with his daughter 11 weeks prior to his demise. He was 64 years of age. "Posey" Johnston was one of the well known characters of Fulton county having lived here nearly all his life. He was born at Warsaw November 26, 1858, a son of John and Margaret JOHNSTON. For 22 years he was employed by the late Val ZIMMERMAN as a furniture salesman. It was his employer who gave him the nickname by which he was known for miles around. When he left the employment of Mr. Zimmerman he moved to a small farm a few miles east of Rochester where he engaged in the dog breeding business, specializing on the various types of bulldogs. For years he drove a white stallion he called "Mack" and as he passed down the street he would shout to his friends: "All ready now." Full of wit and ever ready with a joking reply to remarks by his friends, he will be missed in the community that has known him for so many years. He is survived by his first wife, Mrs. Bertha SCHRANDT, his second wife, having preceded him; two daughters, Mrs. WRIGHT and Mrs. Stella BRYANT of Rochester; 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Funeral services from the Wright residence Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, Rev. J. W. NIVEN in charge. Burial at the I.O.O.F. cemetery.
