MR. THOMAS B. MEANS, 67, died in the Commerce Hospital last Thursday, February 
25th, following an illness of only two weeks of kidney stones.

in Franklin for many years.

preceded him to the grave several years since.

Garnet Wilson conducting the services.  A large concourse of sorrowing 
relatives and friends attended the funeral.

Means of Eastanollee; two daughters, Mrs. Maudie Watkins and Mrs. Eula Mae 
Venable of Commerce; one brother, Hugh Means of Ashland; three sisters, Mrs.
