When he failed to return late in the afternoon, his wife became alarmed and a search was instituted with the result that his body was found in a by path on his plantation where he had fallen some hours before, evidently from a sudden attack of heart failure. His remains were brought here and in the presence of a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends were buried in the Lineville cemetery. The gloom of this sorrow and death has been since intensified in the hearts and homes of Mr. Gaines and family by another almost as sudden death in the family, Mr. E. L.
