Charles Ballard died at his home near Waynesville, June 12,
1902, of typhoid fever after a short illness, aged 24 years. Everything that
skilled physicians and loving hands could do was all in vain; the Lord had need
for him and called him away. His sisters and step-mother were with him and administered
to every want until the end came. His companion had proceeded him just three
weeks. But we weep not as those that have little faith. While we have lost him
we hope our loss is his gain. He is free from all care and trouble and has paid
the debt we all must pay. While his body moulders in the tomb the soul is safe
in Heaven. where there will be no hour of parting and God shall wipe all tears
away.
He leaves two small children and four sisters to mourn his
loss. The interment took place at the Laughlin cemetery at 12 o'clock Saturday.
