Randall came here about 1890, when this country had little to offer and from that time on played a man's part. He went into the cattle business and by care and thrift, laid up a good portion of this world's goods, later taking up farming. He served this county for two terms as County Commissioner and was forced to resign on account of illness. Of a most kindly disposition, his neighbors and acquaintances were his friends. With high ideals of right we believe we can safely say that Henry Randall wronged no man intentionally.

Something over two years ago he was stricken with a growth on the brain. He consulted specialists and was operated on. For a time he appeared to be getting better, when a turn for the worse came, and from that time on the end was inevitable. Being of more than an ordinary constitution, the end came slowly and to that end he bore his part like a man.

Henry Earl Randall was born April 25, 1869, at Dodge, Wisconsin. He came to Nebraska in 1886, and in December, 1892, was married to Miss Melissa C. Beldon. To this union were born, two sons, Gerald and Max, and a daughter, Mrs. M. Garwood. Besides his wife and children he leaves four brothers, Charles C, of Bandon, Oregon; Dean M., of St. Cloud, Florida ; J. O. of Bridgeport, and A. J. of Bayard, His aged father, James M. Randall, lives at St. Cloud, Florida.
