Gibson

Sunday morning, Feb. 12, 1905, Napoleon Gibson died of tuberculosis at his home near Sledd, Missouri. For years he had been a constant sufferer, but always with the patient resignation characterizing a true Christian.
The deceased married Annie Eastin who, with two married daughters and one son, survive him.
He was 59 years of age and had been a consistent member of the Christian church for many years. He was a devoted husband, loving father and a true friend.
Funeral services were conducted by Elder M.D. Dudley of Paynesville at Ramsey church, in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Ramsey cemetery.
Sympathy is extended to the bereaved family in their irreparable loss.
