Death claimed another of the pioneer residents of Sumner Tuesday morning of last week when "Uncle Isaac" Herrin passed away. He had lived in Sumner for more than thirty years, and had always been an honest and upright citizen. He was a man of decided opinions and and true to his religious as well as political principles and was devoted to his home and family by whom he will be greatly missed. The sympathy of a large circle of friends is with them in this great sorrow.
The funeral services were conducted at the residence by his pastor, Rev. O. F. Culver, assisted by the members of the choir of the M. E. Church.
The following obituary was read at the services:
Isaac Herrin was born June 8th, 1831 died March 29, 1910, aged seventy-eight years, nine months and twenty-three days. He was twice married, first on November 9, 1852 to Emma Jane Matthews. From this union were born six children, one dying in infancy. His wife died November 6, 1862. On July 23, 1863 he was married to Mary E. Brown. To this union were born seven children, two of whom have preceded him to the better world.
At the age of thirty years in 1861 he was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal church and lived in that church for forty-nine years. For about twenty-five years he was sexion of the church in Sumner and remained faithful as a keeper of the house of God as long as the responsibility rested upon him.
He has been a sufferer for several years and in his last illness suffered but cheerful when spoken to about his hope for eternity and expressed himself as ready to depart and be with Christ when it was God's will to release him from this life. Peacefully, at 5 a.m. March 29, he fell asleep in Jesus and is here no more, for God took him.
CARD OF THANKS (from newspaper clipping)
We wish to thank all our neighbors and friends and especially Brother Culver and the members of the M. E. church for their many acts of kindness and words of consolation to us during the sickness and burial of our dear husband and father.
