    • Isaac Taylor
      Isaac Taylor was born January 6, 1838, near Shamrock, Callaway county, and died May 26, 1912, at his home in Mexico, Mo., aged 73 years. At the outbreak of the Civil war in 1861 he enlisted in the Confederate army and went out with Captain Rogers and joined General Price. He remained in active service until the close of the war, taking part in 26 hotly-contested battles and seeing scores of brave men fall.

      At the close of the war he returned home penniless, and on December 17, 1867, was married to Miss Minnie M. Kemp, who still survives and who was a loving and devoted wife and helped him fight life's battle. To them were born five sons and three daughters, all of whom have lived to be honorable men and women.

      Mr. Taylor was a good husband and father, a good brother and neighbor, and a good citizen and soldier. What more could he be? What more could he do? He stood firmly for the things he believed to be right, and he was grateful to his Creator and died in the fond hope of immortality. He told his wife he was not afraid to die. 1 Samuel, xvi, "For man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." You may ask, was this a perfect man? I answer no. He may not seem altogether pure in the sight of God, but he will not be altogether defiled. He has fulfilled his mission in life and stepped off the stage of action. After we have journeyed over Life's uneven pathway and stand near its sunset, will we be able to say we have done better? Have we done as well? May God bless his momory and his name.
