He was an old pioneer or early settler who came from Ohio to Crawford county, Ill, in October, 1854 and lived here until death. He was a loving father, a good neighbor and a friend to all whom he chanced to meet. While he did not profess to be a Christian publically, yet he believed that whatsoever a man soweth that shall he reap. He has sown the seed and has gone to reap the reward.
He leaves to mourn their loss a brother, Bruce Calvert, one son, three grandchildren several near relatives besides a host of friends.
