The first wife died on April 11, 1899, and on February 3, 1901, he was married to Mary DAVIS. A son, born to this union, died at birth. "Jim," as he was familiarly known, was deeply devoted to his family. Since the death of his son, nine years ago, he and his devoted wife have made a home for his five orphan grandchildren. Nine grandchildren survive. He was a member of Knight Templar lodge of Bedford and Orange lodge of I.O.O.F. of Orangeville. He spent his entire life in a spirit of mutual helpfulness for his community and the citizens who needed advice or aid. His love of his fellowman, not shown in verbal praise, but in deeds of service. The greatest eternal memory of those who have been and will be in the future guided by his memorable spirit is: He was a true, faithful, honorable and loyal citizen, who loved life for the good he could do for others. Such spirit cannot die." from Tom McCart scrapbook
