J. M. UNDERWOOD. 



27 



Three sons have been born to them, of whom one, Roy, only, is 

 now living'. 



In politics Mr. Underwood is a consistent republican, with strong- 

 tendencies toward prohibition. He has served twice as alderman 

 and once as mayor of Lake City but does not aspire to public life. 



Mr. Underwood has been a faithful member and officer of the 

 Minnesota State Horticultural Society, having served as treas- 

 urer one year, member of the executive board twelve years and 

 been five times elected president of the, society, a position 

 which he now occupies. He is ia the very prime of life and 

 with his vigorous constitution and wholesome habits, both 

 mental and physical has every promise of a long span of use- 

 fulness yet before him— and that his future will be one of use- 

 fulness his Dast offers every assurance.
