DAVIS DIED IN HIS ATLANTA HOME APRIL 18th Death came to Mr. Henry W. Davis last Saturday afternoon at his home in Atlanta, in which city he had lived for about twenty years. He had been in failing health for some weeks. Mr. Davis was a Confederate veteran and was about 80 years of age. He had been a member of the Methodist church the greater part of his long life and had been a good citizen, serving his country well in war and in peace. The remains were brought to Roanoke on Monday and interred in the family lot in the public cemetery. Funeral services were held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Belcher. Rev. N.H. Abernathy was in charge and was assisted by Rev. T.L. Rippey, an old friend of the Davis family. Quite a number of friends of the family, including old friends and neighbors of the deceased, gathered to pay respect to his memory. The widow of Mr. Davis is the only member of the immediate family, also of her father's family, that survives. She was in such feeble health as to make it impossible for her to accompany the remains of her husband to the last resting place. Much sympathy is felt for her. - - - Mr. and Mrs. H.F.
