Died at his residence in Bentonville, Ark. April 24, 1906, J.W. Stroud in the 79th year of his age. The deceased was born near McMinnville, Tenn. Feb. 9, 1828. He came with his parents to Benton County, Arkansas in the 13th year of his age and lived in the county almost continuously for 55 years. He lived to see many wonderful and desirable changes and improvements in this county. He saw the wild prairies and dense young forests yield before the plow and the ax, in the hands of the oncoming and rising generations, the wooden ox sled and wooden axle ox wagon, wooden pitchfork and wooden mould-board plow, give place to present day inventions and improvements in vehicles, farming implements, roads, railroads, etc. He witnessed thousands of acres of uncultivated land turned into beautiful homes, productive farms and fruitful orchards. He saw beautiful villages and busy thriving cities rise up, giving life, value and happiness to her population. He saw, all through the county, school houses, academies and unnumerable church houses standing as monuments of her greatness and success, without which these temporal blessings and advantages, and greater religious blessings and enjoyment never could have been realized by our prosperous people. He was twice married. First about 1850 to Miss Elizabeth Cowen. To them were born four children, three sons and one daughter. Two sons, C.B. and C.W. Stroud of Sheridan, Wyoming and Mrs. Annie Davis of Benton County, living. The mother and one son had gone before. Feb. 10, 1853 he was married to Miss Mary Bethurem. To them were born six children, four sons and one daughter living, one son dead. The dear mother, six sons and two daughters were present when the end came and shared each other's sorrow in their bereavement. The deceased held no church relationship. He was temperate, industrious and frugal, a kind and generous neighbor, and scrupulously honest with his fellow man. All that infinite love and mercy, coupled with infinite justice and righteousness could do for his well being has been done. Many of his friends, neighbors and acquaintances were present at the funeral services at the residence, joined in deepest sympathy with the bereft and followed his remains to their last resting place in the Odd Fellows Cemetery. P. Carnahan.
