Of a kindly, charitable disposition, he was the kind of man that easily makes friends. Throughout his long illness he was at all times a patient sufferer and he displayed remarkable fortitude and cheerfulness during the time he was confined to his bed. During the past few days his condition had gradually become weaker and hope for his recovery was given up several days ago.
