In the early days of Dixon County, he battled with the hardships that came with the early settling of the county, but by his thrift and perserverance he surmounted the obstacles as they arose in his path, and his efforts were rewarded, he accumulated a goodly amount of this worlds goods. For a number of years he taught school. Then the people of the county asked him to serve them sometimes as County Assessor, for two years as Superintendent of schools, and again as Supervisor. These services extended over many years and shows the esteem and respect in which he was held by all who knew him. Since his wife died in 1909, he has made his home with his children, sometimes on the farm and again here in town, since early last fall he has made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Ellen Cummins here in Newcastle, at which place he died. He has been in poor health for nearly a year, and last summer he became very ill, after which he never fully recovered, early in the fall he was able to walk down town and later was taken ill and after a lingering illness he passed away. In health he was a familiar figure on our streets and had a cheery greeting for all, and having resided in the county for so many years his acquaintances were unlimited. He was a friend to all, and was ever ready to lend the helping hand to those in need. He will be sadly missed in the home, but his influence for good will live on, and he will be remembered by the good he has done. ""CARD OF THANKS" We wish to thank the friends who so kindly aided us during the sickness and death of our beloved father. Mrs. Ellen Cummions,John D. Addison, George B. Addison, Jacob D. Addison, Otis D. Addison,Carl J. Addison"
