He made a public profession of religion at the age of twenty-one. The question with him always was, What do the Scriptures teach? He embraced present truth in 1873, and has been a member of the Oswego church ever since it has been organized. He was patient in his sufferings. Before dying, he talked with each present, said he was ready to die, bade each one farewell, and peacefully expired. Funeral discourse by Elder Cross of the Church of god, from 2 Tim. 4: 7, 8.
