His integrity, his faithfullness in duties intrusted to him, his loving care for his family, and his devotion to friends endeared him to all. As a citizen, he lept abreast of the times and formed his opinions after due deliberation, and was firm in his convictions. As a city official, he was honest and faithful to the charges intrusted to his care. By his death, there is a vacant seat in the councils of Hillsboro Camp U. C.
