Bio -He was born at Unity, Adams County, Ohio, May 27, 1876. He is belssed with a strong, vigorous constitution, with apparently perfect health—built for exercise in bodily strength. He had in his younger years considerable experience in farm work. Living as he did in Kansas, he never saw a saloon until he was over fourteen years of age—when his father moved in 1890 to Tarkio, Missouri. He is at the present time (1897) a student of Tarkio College, and will probably take a full college course. The Finney family are all members of the United Presbyterian Church. All the children have had the opportunity of a good college education. Thus they, with well developed, well trained minds, should be prepared to take hold of life's work and make a grand success of it. Mr. and Mrs. Finney are anxious for their children to make the most of life, to do well in both temporal and spiritual things, and to be helpful to others, whether in joy or in sorrow.
