Five years later he moved with his family to his late home in Johnsfield and settled on a new farm almost in the heart of a great forest, without roads and with but few neighbors, yet he lived to see the wild forest turned into fertile farms; to be surrounded by kind neighbors and friends and to help build some of the finest roads we have in the county. He was one of the best-known men in this section of the county, a man who had the respect of all who became well acquainted with him. Deceased had been ailing for a long time with ailments contracted while in the army for which he was drawing a pension, but they were not considered dangerous, and he was only confined to his bed four days when death came to his relief, the result of a complication of diseases.
