Jessie H. POLLARD was born November 30, 1835, near Chain of Rocks, Lincoln county, all of his life being spent in this county. He died at his home 4 miles northeast of Moscow Mills February 17, 1913, of hardening of the blood vessels, and had been a sufferer for several years with kidney and heart trouble. He was married to Fannie J. EALUM, October 23, 1856, and to this union were born eight children only two of whom are living, William L. POLLARD of Old Monroe and Tom POLLARD of Moscow Mills.

In January, 1868, his wife preceded him to that better land and on October 6, 1870, he was married to Alabama BARLEY; to this union 3 children were born, only two living, Walter and Clint of near Moscow. He joined the Christian church early in life and died in that faith. He was a good man and a kind and loving husband and father and will be missed by all who knew him. Besides his children he leaves an aged wife and one sister and two brothers.

Services were conducted by Rev. DUDLEY at New Galilee church February 18, after which the remains were laid to rest in the family lot to await the Master's call. Those of the family present were Walter and Clint POLLARD and wives, Tom POLLARD and wife, Mrs. Jessie POLLARD and Little Mary POLLARD, who they took to raise in infancy, Jas. POLLARD and wife and John POLLARD.

--Mrs. Walter POLLARD
