Drafts, a sou of Jacob Drafts, was born on the 14th of Maj, 1803. He was dedicated to God by holy baptism in infancy, instructed in the prineples of the Christian religion in his yonth. In early life entered into fall commanion with the Evangelical Lutheran Church. About the year 1830 he was intermarried with Miss Julia Wingard, with whom he became the father of twelve children, eight sons and four daughters. After the deatb of his consort in 1863, he was intermarried with Mi9s Henrietta A. Hayes,December the 20th, f 1864, with whom he became the father of three children, one son and two daughters. He departed this mortfti me on ujb uu i April, 1888, at the ripe age of four score and 4 years, 10 months and 3 days. He leaves to mourn their loss in this sad bereavement, an only sister, a disconsolate widow, with ten bereaved children. He was a kind hiisband, a tender father, aif upright and obliging neighbor, and a most excellent citizen; one that will be much missed by the people among whom fce lived; none knew him but to esteem and praise him. He was one of those fathers in Isreal, who helped to get up and organize the first Church Council or Conference that was held in the Lutheran Church in this ponah'v; --Be was a ruling Elder in the church to which he was so devotedly att&hed, and in which he led such exemplary life for more than 40 years in' sue-? cession, which shows the confidence his brethren of the household of faith had in him. His lifeless remains was conveyed to Cedar Grove church cemetery on the 17th, 1 where his funeral services were rendered by Rev D. Eflrd, assisted by Rev. Prof. L. M. Little, and Rev. E. L.

Simon Wheeler, and according to old german custom at her infant baptism Geo. Mayer and wife acted as sponsors. Having approached years of maturity she was confirmed a member of St. Peter's Evangelical Lutheran church, and remained a consistent member of tne same during her whole life. In the days of heT bright, young womanhood she married Levi Boland, and with him lived a quite , and happy life until about 1866 when he was called away to his eternal resting place. For a period-of ten years during the most trying time of our Southern history she ' bravely met the stern problems of life single handed and alone, and during that 3 time her industry and economy was apparent to even casual observer. After this she married Wm. Summer, who lived only a few years, and tfcen at His master's bid3 ding laid down the armor of battle. ' Now too she has gone, and leaves her friends if and relatives no large sums of money oi j. broad acres, but something more than al them: a name unsullied, and a charactei white as the driven snow, which ifimitatec by her posterity will change this worli from one of ti ouble to one of happiness Her funeral services were conducted a ~ Peter's nhnmh. by Revs. D. and J.
