up a flourishing trade; but established
a very enviable reputation for charac
ter and Integrity. At the November
election, 194. he was a candidate for
associate judge upon the Democratic
ticket, and his auccesful opponent,
Judge Lacey, saya of him: "I consid
ered him the hardest man In the county
to beat. I couldn't say anything bad
about him." At the time of he great
Are, three or four years ago, which
nearly swept Meshoppen out of exist
ence, his business place was among
those burned, and he never resumed the
hardware trade aagln, but contented
himself with doing a sort of private
banking business. He was Just In the
prime of business life when death over
took him, and his loss to Meshoppen Is a
serious one. He left a wife, but no chil
dren. The funeral will be held at 1 p.
m. to-morrow.
