JULIUS CRANDAL BISBEE
06 Aug 1838 - 23 Sep 1896

	Julius Crandal Bisbee was born on August 6, 1838, in 
Washtenaw County, Michigan. In 1850 he removed with his 
parents to a farm near Orland in this county where he spent 
the years of his youth.  On the 31st day of July, 1864, he was 
married to Phoebe Maria Wolf.  This union was blessed with one 
child.  At the age of eleven years he was converted and joined 
he M. E. church, being a most faithful and active worker.  In 
the fall of 1872 with his wife he moved to Fremont and engaged 
in the lumber business.  He resided in Fremont until the time 
of his death which occurred early on the morning of Sept. 23d, 
1896, being at the time 58 years, one month and 17 days old.  
In his death the family has lost a kind and faithful husband 
and father, and Fremont and Steuben County a worthy and 
honored citizen.  The setting sun of his life descended upon a 
work well done, a battle well fought.  His last breath but 
placed upon his immortal brow the crown of glory that fadeth 
not away.  After many weeks of suffering, death set at liberty 
a soul for heaven.  He leaves a wife and son and a large 
circle of relatives and friends who mourn his early death, but 
faith and hope see a glad reunion on the other shore.  Funeral 
services were conducted at the church by Presiding Elder 
Simpson, of Fort Wayne, and Rev. Stockdale, the resident 
pastor.
