Carle, aged 73 years, 11 months and 16 days. J.F. Carle was born in Waterboro Center Main, July 10, 1822. He was married to Miss Mary P.Roberts, a native of the same state, on January 16, 1844. They lived in Maine until 1855, where six children, two sons and four daughters, were born to them. In December, 1855, he with his family came west in order, as he thought, to give his children a better chance. He settled near Janesville where he had two brothers living, John B. and James. He made farming his occupation and toiled early and late to build up a home for his loved ones; but those were hard times and a new country. God blessed his labors and they prospered. In January, 1862 he moved to the town of Brooklyn, where he had bought a small farm. Death entered the home on September 27, 1871 and the younger son George was laid to rest. In 1872 with his wife and youngest child, Ella, he moved to Juda, and had a pleasant home. He served as Justice of the Peace for ten years. He was in the butcher business for a while, always keeping himself busy. The youngest child was married in 1877, leaving the old folk alone. Being a great lover of his children, and three of them living in Albany, he sold his beautiful home in Juda and bought property here in Albany, moving in 1888, where he has been contented and happy with his children, his church work and fishing. At 14 years of age he gave his heart to God, united with the church and has been a devout lover of church and temperance work all his life. He joined the Sons of Temperance in early manhood, and afterwards the Good Templars; was an earnest Prohibitionist from the start of that movement, ready to do what he could. The son, J.F. Carle, he lived with at the time of his decease. Susan Alverson, the oldest daugher, resides nearby. Addie C. Tripp lives in Covina, California; Susan Talmage, the second daughter, passed away two years ago. ella, the youngest, lives near Hansel, Iowa. Three daughters, on e son and the aged wife are left to mourn their loss. A large number of people attended the funeral Monday afternoon at the Baptist Church. Rev. Mountain preached from 2nd Timothy, 4th Chapter, 6th, 7th and 8th verses. Messrs. Levi and Wilber Carle, nephews of the deceased, were up from Janesville and many old friends from Juda were present. Mr. Carle was a man of more than ordinary intelligence, and was especially a great student of the Bible. In his death the church has lost one of the faithful ones, who was always at his post in the church service, the young people's meetings, the prayer and covenant meetings and the Sunday school. He was wise in cousel and always ready to take hold of the work nearest his hand. The work shall move on but we will miss our Brother Carle. In the community, he was just the sort of man the world needed. His interest in the cause of temperance was very great. His family has lost a true husband and father, always thoughtful for their welfare, and solicitous for their good. For 60 years he has walked wiwth God when his Father called him home. The family feels sensibly the kindness and consideration of friends and neighbors and gratefully express to all their gratitude for the sympathy and kindness shown them, and the beautiful flowers brought.
