"Died Quite Suddenly 
    Newton Davis died quite suddenly at his home near Schley on last 
Sunday night. The immediate cause of his death is unknown. He was taken 
with hemorrhage at the nose a month or so ago which continued for more 
than a week before it could be checked - since then he had been quite 
feeble and emaciated. He had attended church in the early part of the 
day and was in his usual health; and his untimely end was entirely 
unexpected. 
    Mr. Davis was a good citizen well beloved by his neighbors - and the 
community as well as his immediate family has sustained a serious loss."
