He was born and raised in this vicinity, his father and grandfather being among the early settlers, who came here to make their home. But a few months ago he was married to Miss Laura Shafer, one of Cherokee's most popular young ladies, and the two were among the moving spirits of Cherokee's social life. He was in every respect an exemplary young man, industrious, studious and respected by all. He had a sunny temperament, a kind and sympathetic nature and was happy in the possession of those qualities, which attract, inspire friendship and good will and respect --- qualities which drew to him a wide circle of friends. To those who knew him best, his sad death in the spring time of youth, will appeal with poignant intensity. Funeral services were held at the M.E.Church on last Tuesday under the auspices of the I.O.O.F. and he was laid to rest in the Cherokee cemetery. Contributed by Cheryl White
