!OBITUARY

Des Arc Items.. Died, September 1, 1907, Wm. Ruble, after a lingering sickness of two months. He was born May 12, 1849, and lived to be 58 years, 3 months and 20 days of age. He leaves four children to mourn his loss: Jas. and Tom Ruble, Mrs. Jas. Stevenson and Mrs. Jas. Clifford. His wife died some fifteen years ago and he has lived with his children ever since. While he was not a church member, yet he lived a moral and religious life, and when the time case for him to go he was perfectly resigned to theMaster's will. He was always ready to help the needy and afflicted. He will be missed, not only by his children, but by everyone who knew his.

!OBITUARY

It was with sad hearts that the people of this community gathered at the Sutton cemetery on the 2nd. of this month, to take the last look and commit to the dust the form of their beloved relative and friend, Wm. Ruble, aged 58 years and 3 months. The services were conducted by Rev. John Alcorn at the cemetery.

Wm. Ruble was born at Vulcan, No., May 12,1849. In the year of I868 he was united in marriage to Hepsy Lewis. There were born of this marriage six children, four of which survive him. His wife died when the children were small, leaving his to fill the place of father and mother both. He never married again, but reared his children to manhood and womanhood alone. After they were all married he made his home with one or the other of them. He was at the hose of his youngest son when he died. He was always a kind and loving father, and was loved and respected by all who knew his. He was an inmate of our house for about two years, and although he was not a member of any church, I don't remember of ever seeing his do an act or hearing his speak in anyway unbecoming a Christian. He always respected religion and liked to attend church.

He was confined to his bed three weeks before he died and suffered a great deal. He said if he got able to be about again his first act would be to join the church. He seemed to be perfectly willing to die. He said he was not afraid to die, but hated to leave his children. He spent the greater part of Saturday, Saturday night and Sunday praying. He prayed for his children and for the people who came out in the heat to visit his. He died Sunday night, September 1, 1907, at half past ten o'clock. He leaves two sons, two daughters, eighteen grandchildren, four brothers, one sister and hosts of other relatives and friends to mourn his loss. It was hard to give his up, but we know that our loss is his gain, and he has gone to a better world, where he is free from all pain and care. He is not lost; but gone before. God took his from a world of care in everlasting bliss to share.

A loving father from us is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.

A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW.
