 outbreak of 1862 occurred, he enlisted and went to the 

 frontier, where he remained a few weeks. February, 1865, 

 he enlisted for the war of the Rebellion and went south 

 in March, returning- in July. In 1866, he sold his property 

 in Burnside and went to his early home to live, but in 

 1868 he returned to Red Wing- and secured the home where 

 he has since lived and led a life honorable to himself and. 

 family. 



He won the unswerving friendship of all with whom he 

 came in contact by his genial manner, and his frank, up- 

 right spirit. 



Those who survive him are his wife, two sons and two 

 daughters. The children are Elisha, Arthur E., Miss Lela 

 and Miss Maud Allyn. 



Mr. Allyn became a member of this society in 1886, and re- 

 tained his relation unbroken thereafter till the time of his death. 

 He was a regular attendau t at the meetings and contributed his 

 full share towards its work. 



An honest, true-hearted man and brother has gone home.
