Mr. Gray spent the rest of his years as follows: after leaving Kamrar he lived at Lakota for six years, then eight years were spent at Ledyard. After that, four years at Baxter, Iowa, and about a year and a half ago he with his familymoved back to Ledyard.

On april 7th he suddenly suffered a stroke and after six days of waiting he passed to his eternal home on April 13, 1936. He had reached the age of 72 years and 2 days.
