there and made several other calls on friends in other places. He was
feeling tired that afternoon but did not want to be assisted home.

to arise very early in the morning and to read his paper until
breakfast. On this morning as he did not get up, Mrs. Cravens went to
his room, lowered his window and closed the door. She noticed that he
looked very pale, but as he was in a comfortable position she left him
so he could rest. When breakfast was announced he was called three times
but his voice was already silent and he had gone on to his just reward.
Mr. Cravens was born in the year 1841 near Lexington and moved to Henry
County at the close of the Civil War. He was the son of Thomas and Jane
Morris Cravens. In his early years he was a great student of the bible
