Other Age 21 years, 2 months and 4 days. "Charley Ballard died last Saturday evening and was buried at West Union." Son of Charles and Kate Ballard. [From the Diary of Anna Stanton Harvey for March 19, 1888: "The funeral of Charlie Ballard occurred this morning, a very solemn occasion and impressive. He was sick only a week, a bad case of Pneumonia and pleurisy, delirious most of the time. Was told (Saturday) morning he probably could not recover. Desired salvation and sent for (Bro. Eleazar Bales), a heart rending scene, he seemed comforted and soon became delirious again and died about 5 P.M."]
