Union Democrat, Aug 15, 1885....Soon after the big strike he sold his portion of the mine to Divoll and quit work, having secured a compentency to carry him through life. A little over two years ago he married Miss Julia Mock and since has lived in a quiet, unpretentious way. Though not apparently physically strong, in latter years he seemed in good health and no one looked for his death. Since the burning of Divoll's flour mill, he brooded over the terrible death which overtook Jacob Bray, brother of Joseph, which made a deep impression on his mind...After a lifetime of hard work he was allowed but a brief period to enjoy the satisfaction of having achieved a fortune...He leaves a young widow and an infant child.

Inscription
All flesh is as grass, and all the glory
Of man as the flower of grass,
The grass withereth and the flower thereof
Falleth away but the word of the Lord
Endureth forever
