OBITUARY
William Beck, son of William and Jane Fletcher Beck, was born March 24, 1844, near Gallipolis, Gallia County, Ohio, and departed this life April 13, 1925, near his birthplace, aged 81 years and 19 days. He spent his boyhood days near his birthplace, and when the Civil War began he was willing to fight for his country. He entered military service in 1862 and fought until the close in 1865 when, on account of his obedience and loyalty, he received an honorable discharge.
Shortly after the war, on April 17, 1870, he was united in marriage to Sarah Jane Denney and to this union were born seven children, namely, W. F. Beck of Erie, Penn., Oscar, Edward, John and Reuben Beck, Mrs. Harry Coulson and Mrs. D. W. Dewitt, all of Gallia County, and also twenty-three grandchildren of whom four have preceded him to the great beyond.
He was ever a kind and loving husband, and a good neighbor. He had been in failing health the past two years but had been able to go about until last Friday when he suffered a stroke which caused the end Monday near 6 p.m.
His trials are ended
The suffering is o'er
He is now sweetly resting
On Heaven's bright shore.
