Byron Maxson Green, son of James P. and Susan A. Maxson Greene, was born at Farina, Ill., May 17, 1879, and died at his home near Farina, July 25, 1906. He was united in marriage to Edith Whitford, of Farina, on Sept. 13, 1901. To them were born three children, the oldest, a daughter, died when eighteen months old, the youngest died in infancy, last spring. Mr. Green united with the Farina Church Jan. 30, 1897. The Sabbath before his death he attended church and was in usual health. Although his brief sickness was attended with great pain and suffering, he talked very freely and tenderly of his Christian hope, his willingness to die, and his great interest in the spiritual welfare of his kindred. Farewell services were held at the church on Thursday afternoon, his pastor speaking from Job 14:14.
