Such might be the brief biography of his life, and in saying this we have said much more than if he had acquired great riches, fame and other distinction. He did what his Lord required of him; he did justly, he loved mercy and he walked humbly with his God. His departure was marked by that saipe peace and confidence in God that marked his earthly career. William Reed was born August 22, 1833, in Whilstone, near the city of Exeter, England, and at the dawn of day, June 12, 1913, (shall we say he died?) he awoke in the brightness of that eternal day in whjich the sun. nev­ er rises nor never sets. It was in En­ gland that he spent his young man­ hood and acquired many of the standi and sterling principles and qualities which characterise the English people. In the year 1858 he was united in mar­ riage to Miss Harriet Netherway, who for tifty-five years has 4>een his loving and devoted companion and helpmate, sharing ?vith him the burdens and sor­ rows of fife, which have not been a few. God blessed them with eight children, five of whom preceded their father to their eternal tiome. Those living and dead are as follows, accord­ ing t) the order y-'- who died at the age of six weeks; Alice Jane, whom many remember died at Ridge6eld at the age of thirty-five; Frederick William, living at Ridjfe- fleld: Matilda Reed Frame, died at the age of twenty-nine; Richard of Ridge- i field and William Henry of Pasadena, Calif. Bdwin, who. at the age of twen­ ty-one, departed this life in the vigor of young manhood, and Mabel, in jthe prime of young womanhood at twenty- five, left- the parents again bereaved. In ten months iney were bereft of three, after all had reached their maturity. Besides the three sons liv­ ing, Frederick, Richard and Henry, there are ten grandchildren, who were the pride of his heart, and who will miss the blessing and benediction of "Grandpa" Reed. Two sisters in En­ gland, Mrs. Amelia Netherway and Mrs. Eleen Rrewei;. and one brother, Henry Reed, of Ridgefield are left to mourn the loss of a brother. It was in the year 1875 that he came to America, locating in Ridgefield and was followed two yews later by his wife" and five- children. Their first home was on what is now known as the Morey farm, south of Ridge' field. They have resided in our midst ever since, with the exception of four years when they lived on the Blakes- lee farm near Woodstock. Eleven yeirs iiuve they lived in their present home, and lu re father and mother have b^en the recipients of many tokens of hive and esteem from their children, graudchildren and their host of friends. It was Mr. Reed's lirst and only sick ness aad he su!T>nd much and patient ly. Kverythinir was done that was humanly possible to stay the hand of death at.d ease his pain (and in this his faithful nurse did much to oomfort him), but God in greater love took him into the realm where is no sickness, pain nor death. As a Christian man he was of the kind that the religion of our Lord Jesus makes glorious. Early in life he became His follower and he was con­ sistent. He always,had a testimony to God's saving and keeping power. It was an inspiration to hear him pray, and as a member of this church he was faithful. As a husband and father he was loving, kind and indulgent, and while called upon to bear much in the loss of his children, he was also a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, but these things worked out for him a finer character and a far more and exceeding eternal weight of glory As a friend and neighbor he was loved and respected by all. He had no enemies. God bless the memory of this sainted brother tb our good, and may we remember that such a life is worthy of emulation in its faith, work and deeds, and that at the last we, too, shall bo crowned if we havu. Jteep as faithful. sr • i-".. 4nBNIBDWa Rev. E. Berthold was a Spring Grove visitor Tuesday. Many of our college students are again at home for their summer vaca­ tion. A number of Lady Foresters of this vicinity attended the outing that took place at Elgin last Wednesday. Sheds that were on the M. H. Freund lot have been moved over on S. M. Schmitt's place. This brings the stalls to a place where they are easier of access and also more convenient. T6day (Thursday) the school chil­ dren are having their school picnic at Nell's Columbia park. This is the day that the little ones enjoy themselves. They have no more cares, lessons are over. Hurrah! It is vacation time. A suggestion: Could anything be done to avoid those clouds of dust that are caused by automobile traffic? How about it, if some energetic people got together and tried to sofve this prob­ lem? Suppose the) try oiling the main street? Could it be accomplished? Think it over By a Booster. The wedding dance held at "Stub­ by" Smith's hall here on Tuesday even­ ing of this week was very well attend­ ed, there being about 85 couples pres­ ent. Everyone had a swell time and enjoyed the event to the fullest ex­ tent. "ltilly" Burke of Chicago, ,'somft< drummer," assisted the local orchestra on this occasion and made a hit with the dancers. All told, the event proved a marked success. . - * On account of unforeseen circum stances the entertainment which was advertised to take place at the Parish hall here last Sunday evening has been postponed until next Sunday night when same will positively be given. The postponement, altho greatly re­ gretted by those in charge, probably was a good thing, after all, as it gave those who take part a week longer to rehearse their parts and thereby be­ come more efficient. Don't miss it next Sunday evening. The basket social given at the Parish hall last night for the benefit of the church here brought.out a big attend­ ance and as a result the church funds were enriched to the extent of about $100. Geo. Vogel, the oratorical auc tioneer of Solon, was present to dis­ pose ,of the many pretty baskets. Mr. Vogel, as usual, made a hit with the crowd and experienced no trouble in finding puWliasers for each and every basket. After the good things had been partaken of dancing was enjoyed.
