Carrithers in 1856. To them were given thirteen children, seven of whom are living to mourn the loss of a true father and comfort a widowed mother. Mr. Benson came west with his family and aged mother, settling in Superior, Neb., 26 years. They have lived in Cloud Co., Kans., for more than fifteen years, where they have found them a host of friends. Mr. Benson was a man of noble mind and gracious heart. His home was ever open to the early itinerant preachers of the Gospel of all denominations. No proper eulogy can be spoken of him as husband and father in his home. He delighted in helping the man who was worsted in the battle of life. One year ago he was stricken with paralysis, and since that time has set an example of patient, uncomplaining loyalty to the Eternal Will fulfilling the command given to one of olden time, "Go thou thy way till the end be, for thou shall rest and shalt stand in thy lot, at the end of the days." Funeral services were held at the residence at 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 5. Rev. harding preached the sermon and Rev. Hardison assisted in the services. Interment was made in Glasco's beautiful cemetery.
