W. Kinabrew Expired on Tuesday Night Died Tuesday, January the 17th, 1893, at his son’s residence in Piedmont, Dr. J. W. Kinabrew, in the 74th year of his age. His remains were interred in the cemetery in Piedmont on Wednesday, in the presence of relatives and friends, and of Rev. P. H. Brewster and Rev. G. W. Hamilton who conducted the burial services. Dr. Kinabrew, or the “old doctor” as he was called to distinguish him from his son, Dr. W. H. Kinabrew, the well-known physician of this city, was born in Columbus county, Georgia, where he was actively engaged in the duties of his profession prior to his removal to Piedmont, eight years ago. On coming to this city he relinquished his practice to the able care of his son, beside whom he leaves one other living child, Mrs. A. J. Buford, of near Cartersville, Ga. He had been troubled with an affection of the heart for ten years, and a late attack of la grippe aggravated it. Two months before his death of his wife, who deceased last February, he was taken seriously ill, and his life was despaired of. Good medicine, care and nursing, combined with a stay at Piedmont Springs, bettered his condition until a few days ago, when he contracted the attack of pneumonia which was the immediate care of his death. In appearance he was a man of fine physique and was both active and energetic. In his profession he was skillful and observant. His character was such that he commanded respect from all; admiration from his friends; and love from his relatives. He was a member of the Baptist church.
