 Munson also subscribed to "infidel" newspapers such as the "Blue-grass Blade" and occasionally lectured at Freethinker meetings.When he died in 1913, his funeral was held in a public hall instead of a church and the services, which were “simple and brief,” consisted largely of a funeral oration composed by the deceased himself “when still in good health.” He was afterward buried in Denison’s Fairview Cemetery.The West Campus of Grayson County College in Denison, Texas, preserves much of Munson's work.
