Lesson of Wabash, Indiana Obituary (1881)

Poor Fellow....
Don't let this be the sum of your life in your obituary:
"Robert Bloskie, an old miserly hunch back man, who came from
Germany to Wabash nine years ago, died on Saturday, in filth and misery.  
He had some $1,500 in cash in the house, but refused to spend any of it, even to save his life(October 27, 1881; Transcribed by SallyH)

 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. James 4:14
