A short time before his departure he told a brother that he was prepared to die and said that it was well with his soul. He leaves a wife, six sons, three daughters, an aged mother, four brothers and a large circle of relatives to mourn their loss. A younger brother, Rev. Simon Landis, is the pastor of our church at St. Francisville, Illinois. Funeral services were conducted by the writer, at the home, October 30, 1908. Scripture used, Psalm 23.
