Stoddard S. Johnson
Johnson -- At his residence in Oregon, Dane County, November 20, 1879, of congestion of the lungs and heart disease. Stoddard S. Johnson, aged 72 years, 9 months and 22 days.
Mr. Johnson was a native of Delaware County, N.Y. and emigrated in the spring of 1844 to the then town of Madison and settled on the farm which remained his home until his death. He joined the Methodist Church at its organization over thirty years ago and has ever since been one of its most consistent and exemplary members. To every call for charitable or beneficent aid, in or out of the church, Mr. Johnson has ever responded cheerfully. His loss makes a void which it will be hard to fill, for he was one of the best fathers to his family, a living epistle in the church and an honored member of the community in which he lived and died.
His death, like his life, was peaceful and calm; fully trusting in his Redeemer, he was perfectly resigned to pass the dark river and join the loved ones gone before.
Thus, one after another, the pioneers pass away to their rest and reward.
