Gregory was born in Shelby County and was seventy-four years of age. He was a southern Methodist minister and had been engaged in the ministry since his early manhood. Because of his age and failing health he had no regular charge in recent years, yet he preached from time to time and many there were who sought opportunities of listening to his sermons, which were ever fraught with words of wisdom and earnest pleas for the better and higher life. His last regular charge was at Green Valley, Brown County. He was three times married and is survived by a widow and five children. The children are Prof. C.A. Gregory, a high school teacher; Ira Gregory, of Shelby county; Mack Gregory, of Waldron; Mrs. Carey Hatten, of Geneva, and Wilbur Gregory, of Kansas."
