He attended Plainfield schools. He was married to Miss Pearl Jenkins of near Plainfield and their home was on a farm north of Plainfield in the neighborhood of his childhood home. He was for some time a member of Guilford Township Advisory Board. He was a member of Plainfield Friends church and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. He was engaged in farming until in declining health. TRIBUTE The Messenger Plainfield (Hendricks County) Indiana, August 26, 1943, P-4 It was the soil of northern Guilford township that Walter Barlow built his home-a home dear to him on soil familiar through the years to him as it had been to his father. Born at Brownsburg 66 years ago, the son of James and Sarah Hornaday Barlow, he moved when a very young child with his parents to near Plainfield. It was here that he grew to manhood and attended Hoadley school and Plainfield schools. He was married in 1900 to Maude Flynn of Brownsburg, who passed away in 1903. To this union one son was born--Cecil, now of Los Angeles, Calif. In 1905 Walter Barlow was married to Pearl Jenkins of Plainfield. Their children are Russell and Mrs. Emil Hadley of Plainfield, Mrs. Roy Warmoth of Hazelwood. The brothers and sisters are Will of Constance, Minnesota, Henry of Plainfield, Virgil of Little Rock, Arkansas, and Mrs. Charles McClain and Mrs. Fred Breedlove of Plainfield. The late Albert P. Barlow also was a brother. Known and loved by a wide circle of friends, Walter Barlow made no difference in rank, position--he was the same to all. With genial personality, he had keen interest in all religious and civic organizations of the community, and perhaps more important, he always had time for a word of cheer, a friendly greeting for everyone he met. He was a member of the Friends church and was always interested in the relation of the church to the home and the community. For 45 years he was a member of the IOOF lodge, living true to the principles of the group. For four years he served on the Guilford township advisory board and he attached particular interest to schools and good citizenship. Well know throughout Hendricks county as a good farmer, he saw the possibilities early of modernizing the farm home. He was one of the promoters of the Rural Electrification system, and the Barlow home is one of the beauty spots of northern Guilford township. He enjoyed flowers, and little things about the home which made for comfort and convenience. More than anything else, though, his interest was centered in his family. He always felt that one's happiness depended on making others happy, and is this philosophy he began at home--always doing things for and with his wife and children. As his son and daughters married, he found additional happiness in their homes and families. His grandchildren, Betty Lou, Janice, Jane and Jean, were a source of much joy to him. Some months ago bodily affliction compelled Walter to give up active work and he had been confined to his home and the hospital. But through all the time he manifested the same qualities of faith and heroism that was characteristic of him. He was thoughtful of his companion--and appreciative of all kindness shown him. His life was marked by simplicity, frankness and the belief that friendship is one of the most valued qualities in life. In the sudden passing of Walter Barlow on August 13, 1943, the community has lost a friend--indeed there are countless people who feel a great personal loss. But there is comfort in the thought that he had faith in the beautiful lines, "If I walk in the pathway of duty, If I work till the close of the day, I shall see the great King in His beauty, When I've gone the last mile of the was.
