Obituary for Mr Peter Ox with long life and church service
The death of Mr Peter Ox is announced for Monday at 3 p.m. He was born October 26, 1813, about to reach his 79th year, and leaves a widow, two sons, three daughters, grandchildren, and many friends. Described as truthful, honest, generous, and brave, he was a long time Clarke County resident and a devoted member of the Second Baptist Church. Known for business success after 1860, he was deeply engaged in religion, public life, and aid to the young, and fell asleep in Jesus after a painful illness. A funeral sermon was planned with Rev. B F Elliott, and a final moment saw him seeking to pay taxes with a last check on deathbed.
