He was an honest man, a good neighbor and an upright citizen, and will be missed in the community. He leaves a widow and seven children. The funeral services were held on Monday at one o'clock from the house and half-past one from the Oceanic Presbyterian church. Rev. S.W. Knipe conducted the ceremony, his text being "The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness." The funeral was the largest ever held in Oceanic.
