Born near Ashland, Ohio, in 1833. He and I attended the Ashland Academy together the summer of 1847. He was making good progress in study, but after a time was taken sick with some kind of fever: he partially recovered, but took a relapse, resulting in his death, in August, 1847. He was buried in the Ashland Cemetery, the students wearing the usual badge of mourning and marching in sorrowful procession to the grave. Thus when apparently preparing for life's work, death comes and the accountability must be rendered. It is well to seek the Lord in early life.
