BEARD, J.L. - (from Lowell) Recently we recorded the death of a mother, today we chronicle the death of a father, who after ten days of intense suffering on account of a broken limb, quietly passed away at 7:25 on the evening of the 17th inst. Our father, J.L. Beard, was born in Bedford County, Tennessee, March 2nd, 1828; was married to Miss E.E. Patterson, our mother, February 14, 1850. To this union eight children were born and the only surviving members of this family now are two sons and one daughter. Father passed through many trials and difficulties during his stay on earth, especially while serving as a soldier during the civil war, yet we remember he often said he trusted in God and he has left evidences so plain that we believe he is now resting sweetly, resting in a Savior's love. He was buried Monday in Goad Springs cemetery, Elder Ballard of Springdale conducting the funeral service.
