He had a wife and small son and almost lived among his people. No house too small or too common that did not welcome them. Truly This people grieved when he was fered Rev.

J. A. Amos was his successor, a good man but of entirely different temperament. So much of the work started by the former pastor was let go and not completed then. Paul Gibson has sold his property near the Christian church to Mrs.

Emma Farris, widow of Thos. Farris. Dr. Buckley has sold his residence to Jas. Weir and will give possession soon going to Ainsworth, Iowa.

Winchester ever had came here and got A start and then left for Red Oak, Iowa. This was Dr. Lawrence.
