Decatur County Journal February 22, l906 Died at his home in Davis City, February 5, l906, of a complication of diseases contracted while in the Union Army.  The funeral services were held in the L.D.S. Church the following day.  Elder Stebbins, of Lamoni, officiated after which the remains were taken in charge by the members of the G.A.R. Post and laid to rest in the old cemetery to await the resurrection morn.  Deceased was an honored member of the G.A.R. Post. Deceased was born in Crawford County, Indiana, Sept. 26, l846, and grew to manhood in that state.  In l864 he enlisted in the Union Army and served until the close of the war.  He returned to Crawford County and Nov. l5, l868, was united in marriage to MISS MARY J. BRANNON.  To this union two daughters were born; MRS. F.E. DAVIS and MRS. A.R. BARTLETT, both of Burlington Junction, Mo.  He lost his companion by death in l88l and the year following, he came to Decatur County to live with his children.  In l885 he married MISS ALICE FLORA and to this union were born six children, all of whom with the mother, are left to mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father. For a time he was a member of the Christian Church but later on joined the L.D.S. Church and lived a faithful member until death.  It can be truly said of Bro. MERRITT that he was a good man, a kind neighbor and a friend ever ready at all times to help in need.  May he sleep in peace. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
