Mr. Priest, although in poor health for some time was not seriously ill until the past few days, and his demise came as a shock to his family and many friends. Mr. Priest had lived in Rochester for many years and during that time had built up a splendid reputation. He was at one time one of the city's most prominent business men, and had a most extensive acquaintance thruout the county. Zachariah Taylor PRIEST was born in Rush county, April 1, 1847. He was the son of Benjamin Franklin PRIEST and Olive PRIEST CAMERER, the latter having died about a year ago. His father died when he was eighteen months old. When seven years old his mother was united in marriage to Jacob CAMERER and together with them he came to Fulton county. He was a farmer until about forty years old, when he moved to this county and engaged in the livery business, but during the last few years he has been compelled to give up all business on account of failing health. He was an industrious and ambitious man and did not take his bed until three days before his death. His suffering was unspeakable but he bore it with patience. In 1868 he was united in marriage to Laura M. LACKEY and to this union eight children were born, all of whom are still living except Willard L. [PRIEST]. When sixteen years old he united with the Ebenezer Baptist church, to which faith he still held. He is survived by a wife and seven children and nine grandchildren. The children are Mrs. H. A. MARSHALL, Mrs. O. S. MACKEY, Della PRIEST, Frank PRIEST, of Whiting, Ind.; and Mrs. Edward HILL, Mrs. Edward TETZLAFF and Arnold PRIEST, of this city. He also leaves two half-brothers and two half-sisters with many other friends and relatives to mourn their loss. The funeral will be held at the residence on E. 13th street at 11:00 o'clock Thursday. Interment will be made at the Odd Fellows cemetery. ----- Published in The Rochester Sentinel Thursday, March 20, 1913 Personal Miss Louise OLIVER, of Macy, and Mrs. Harriett SHILLING, of Logansport, attended the funeral of Taylor PRIEST today.
