And it is well. A sorrowing family he has left - an affectionate wife, children whose love for him can not be measured by words, and friends and neighbors who sadly realize their loss. But our grief is in part compensated. He could not see here - almost blind for years - but he sees there! Here he recognized friends by voice; there his eye kindles with the luster of youth as he greets the dear ones gone before, and strikes hands with the comrades who lay by his side in the trenches, kept step with him on the weary night march, and slept with him under the winter stars in the damp swamp or on the bleak hillside. MajorJumper was the deadly foe of shams. He believed in calling things by their proper names. This fact is shown by the title preceding his name. Many men with a colonel's commission would have enjoyed no less a title than General, but he desired to be known as we knew him and called him Major.... In this country he had a few if any equals in debate. Fearless and confident he stood before the people and the man who measured swords with him upon the platform of stage found a foe man worthy of his steel...".⁷ (an unknown value.)¹¹ He was buried in Melvern Cemetery at Melvern, Kansas.¹²
