Excerpt from State Normal Magazine, Vol. 5: April, 1901
He governed his home and his farm with prudence and economy, and when by reason of advancing age he resigned from public life, he went back to the simple country life he had left long ago-but it was not the same. She who had made it home in the truest sense of the word had preceded him to the house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens, and his true heart mourned her sadly, while it bowed in humble submission to the will of God.
