Here he spent his early boyhood days and during his youth worked in the lumber mills of Canada. This occupation really fitted him for the blacksmith business which he followed the remainder of his life. He worked at his trade in a number of places before coming to Renwick in 1893 with his older brother, Alex, and he continued in business here up until the time of his death. In the year 1901 he was united in marriage to Christina Klasse of Renwick. To this union four children were born, three daughters and one son: Mrs. Edna Stafford of Renwick, Mrs. Hilda Clark of Eagle Grove, Clarence Black of Rockwell City and Mrs. Melva Bonwell of Eage Grove. He passed away at a Fort Dodge hospital on June 9, 1942, at the age of 68 years, 9 months and 11 days. In infancy he was baptized in the Presbyterian Church of Rushmore, Minn. During his residence in Renwick he enjoyed fishing trips to the northern lakes whenever possible. He was a firm believer in Masonry, belonging to the Blue Lodge, the Chapter, the Commandery and the Mystic Shrine, but ill health kept him from his usual keen interest in these orders. He spent many hours in reading, the Bible being his favorite book. He was of a quiet patient disposition, full of energy and faithful to his task to the end of life's journey. Besides his wife and four children, he is survived by four sisters and two brothers: Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson, Mrs. Ann McGlaghen, Mrs. Aggie Thom, Mrs. Helen Baird and Robert Black, all of Rushmore, Minn., and Alex Black of Grundy Center. There are also eight grandchildren and many other relatives and a host of friends.
