1870 -- listed as "22"
1880 -- listed as "30"

Gone Home

DIED: -- At his home 1 1/2 miles est of the city, Jan. 31, 1896, Samuel A. Larimore.

Bro. Larimore was born in Ohio July 8th, 1850. At the age of five he left Ohio and went to Iowa and remained there twelve years. During this time he received a common school education, notwithstanding the fact that he had Indians for his associates the greater part of the time.

In the year 1867 he, in company with his parents, came to Mo., and for three years conducted a farm, after which he engaged in the drug business at Plattsburg for the same length of time. Finally he sold out at Plattsburg and run a general mercantile store for his father at Mill Grove.

In the mean time he was married to Miss Maggie J. Blocher to whom have been born eight children, but only five of them with the mother remain to mourn the loss of a father and husband.

Bro. Larimore's health gave way before he left Mo., consequently he came to Bentonville, Ark., in 1891 in quest of health, but seemed to grow worse indstead of better. At last the end came, but no one could have borne up under such burdens more fairthfully than he.

One thing can be said of him, he died as he lived. He lived by faith in Jesus, and died in the arms of victory.

Mr. Larimore had only one brother, Geo. Larimore, Mill Grove, Mo., living at the time of his death and sickness, but he was not able to come to see him, on account of sickness.

Bro. Larimore's remains were intered in Oakley's Chapel Saturday, Feb. 1st, before which time a funeral service was conducted in the Chapel by the writer.

I extend thanks for Sister Larimore to her kind and generous neighbors for help and assistance in a trying hour. The Lord will surely remember you at the resurrection of the just.

To mother and children: Follow the path that he followed who has just preceeded you to the glory world, look to Him to whom he looked who has just conquered by faith and gone home to be with his Lord and yours.

M. M. Smith.

He was buried in February 1896 at Oakley Chapel Cemetery, Rogers, Benton Co., AR, Findagrave #14513995.
