Mr. Hartman always tried to be honest and an upright man with all of his neighbors. He having past from time into eternity on the testimony of all we say. He was an honest hardworking man. We reap what he has sowed. Many acres of timberland are now under cultivation giving food for the sower and bread to the eater as the result of his labor. Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with all thy might. Night comes when no man can work to all the glory of God.
