Inscription: "At Rest" - Research Note: He was a farmer, father not known, mother, Henrietta Saur born Germany. Cause of death was complications of flu. His wife named as Mrs. C. T. Bacon and was the informant on the death certificate. - He was the son of Edwin Bacon and Magdalena Henrietta (Sanchez) Tereso. His wife was Winnie Elizabeth Stater. - Possible news item: Mrs. Taylor Bacon was in town Tuesday evening. She said the only news was that it was cold weather, but admitted that she had sold 2,200 lbs of butter this year that had brought her 40 cents a pound or $888. from few cows on a rough 40 acre farm. She had a large bucket filled with eggs, which probably pays the grocery bill. There are a few calves and a bunch of hogs also kept on this place, which shows that you can do business on this rough land at a profit, with less expense that on the higher priced farms - if you have the know how. There is room in the Greasy Creek country for over 1000 more such farmers as Mr. and Mrs. Bacon and you don't need a fortune to make a start. | Death Certificate Online Newspapers Census Phyllis Long Photo Fred and Neoma Sherman |

In order that the same thing may be said of them, when the time comes for their passing. He was wealthy in honor, up rightness, integrity, temperance, fortitude, prudence and justice, and love for his God. His every desire was to do good and it was very pleasing to him to see people doing good. His splendid life is before us and we say that it is worthy of imitation, because of its splendidness.
