His advantages for education were limited to an attendance at school about two months winters. At the age of 21 years he inclined to branch out for himself and leave the old farm, but a mother's entreaties overcame his resolutions and he remained to care for her and bravely put his "shoulder to the wheel." He identified himself with the Baptist Church and throughout his life has looked to the Christian Cause for strength and help. At the age of 26 he married and went to keeping house in his own house, earned and paid for by his own exertions. His grandfather, James Reed, left a will in which he bequeathed the interest of $1,000, to Amos his son, father to Linus Reed, the principal to be paid to the children of Amos Reed at his death. In the year 1865, just after the close of the Civil war, Linus Reed moved to Michigan, bought a farm of 260 acres, con- tracting a debt of $3000, with interest at 10 per cent. But "where there is a will there is a way," and helped by his wife, he cleared this indebted- ness, and his property increased to the value of $20,000 by the building of a railroad through the land. His children grew to years of maturity — needed establishing in life — a wave of reverse circumstances swept the country, and unpaid loans put Mr. Reed again into debt, and he was obliged to sell his farm, which he did fortunately at a good price. Since the death of Mrs. Reed, Aug. 18, 1900, Mr. Reed has made his home with his son, R. C. Reed, and daughter, Clara. Early in life he became a church member, has been Sabbath -school superintendent and for nearly 50 years a Bible class teacher. 4 ! 5 RiiOBA Reed (6). Hammond Branch.
