and joined her mother in the Spirit world.

(Leona died on February 10, 1923).

 

On June 27, 1886, he married Matilda A. Sweet, with whom he

lived until death bid them part. This marriage was blessed with

five children, Viola May Donaldson of Columbus;

Bertha A. Jinks of Laurelville; Margaret Courtright of Columbus;

and two that died in infancy.

 

There remains to mourn his departure, his companion,

nine children, a foster daughter, Gladys Reid,

31 grandchildren, 4 brothers, and three sisters,
