of Burr Oaks, Ford Couuty, wbo lies for years been known as the
owner of the
largest farm in the United States, and who has had a
most remarkable history.
He was aged 73 years, was a native of
Ohio, and had lived in I.linois more than half of his life. He first
came into prominence as

United States.
