OBITUARY

Thos. W. Branson was born in Fayette County, Ill., Oct 18, 1848, died at his home in Filmore, Feb 13th, 1918, aged 69 years 3 months and 25 days.

Mr. Branson spent his entire life in the county of his nativity and Fillmore, having many friends in both places, all of whom honored and respected his integrity and manhood.

In the year of 1871 he was united in marriage to Anges A. Mahon which union was blessed with five children, three boys and two girls, three of whom remain to mourn their loss with the grief stricken wife and mother, two having passed to their heavenly home in infancy.

The remaining children are Dalby of Springfield, Ill., Mrs. Jennie Smith of Vandalia, Ill., Mrs. Laura Mayhew of Witt, Ill., all being present to help comfort their mother in this sad parting.

Mr. Branson was converted and joined the M. E. Church at Fillmore in 1909, and his life since that time has proved his profession.

He had abundant faith in God, exalted our Lord, and his Christ in his daily walk and testified in all by word of his love for and hope of salvation through Christ.

Though the last five years of his life were passed under a cloud of affliction, bodily suffering and anxious thought fearing lest he should become a burden, his daily hourly prayer was that God would say, "It is enough, come home."

We mourn but do not murmur, we sorrow but not as those that have ho hope, for we have full assurance in Christ and his gospel of life thro death that he died that we might have the abundant life throughout all eternity.
