farm implements and settled in Cochran 36 years ago, and became identified in 
financial circles.  He served as president of the state Bank of Cochran from 
the time of its organization until his retirement a few years ago.

He was a holder of extensive farm lands and city real estate.  He was a member 
of the Christian church.

The body will be taken to his old home in Lexington, Ky., for interment.  He 
is survived by three sons, T. W. Fisher, of Cochran, William Fisher,

obituary states he died in 1931. The obituary speaks for it self. He died in 
1931.
