Henry Arnspiger was born near Lexington, Ky., Dec. 16, 1828. Died at the residence of his daughter, Annie Kincaid southwest of Ashton, Aug. 10, 1911, at the age of 82 years, 7 months and 25 days. He was married to Mary Fitzgerald Nov. 4, 1852 who died Aug. 17, 1905. There was born to this union seven children, of which five are living. They are Annie Kincaid of Ashton, Albert Arnspiger of Geary, Okla., Maggie Hartly, Geary, Okla., Charles Arnspiger of South Haven, and Ona Hollingsworth of Wellington.

Uncle Henry Arnspiger as he was known by all the old residents and most all the people of the county, came to Johnson county in Aug. 1875. When he came to Sumner county he located on a farm which he owned at the time of his death. No man in the country and especially in the south part of the county was more instrumental in church and Sunday school work, always giving liberal and most of the time he gave more than his share. The writer has known him for about 27 years and he was a man so endowed that to know him meant to like him. He was liberal in his views, he was a lifelong member of the M.E. church, a good citizen, a kind and loving parent and will be missed by the host of friends that he left behind when his spirit took it flight and returned to the one that gave it. Any community is better by such a man living in it.

He was buried in the cemetery that was started on his place 33 years ago, when his son George accidently shot himself while hunting antelope. The friends of those whom he was taken from join in extending their fullest sympathy. George and his father are buried in the same cemetery.

The relatives desire to thank their friends and neighbors for their many kind acts and help in and during the sickness of their father Henry Arnspiger. - Annie Kincaid, Albert Arnspiger, Maggie Hartley, Chas. Arnspiger, Ona Hollingsworth.
