A brief but truthful sketch of his life and character, accompanied by a steel engraving which hardly does him justice, for he had a strong, intelligent face with regular well marked features, can be seen in Ellis' history. When he passed away he left a good name as an upright man. considerate and charitable to the poor, and helpful and obliging to his neighbors. He wronged no man; but dealt truly and fairly with all. so that no reproach rests upon his memory, although he never made any profession.”
