Robert E. Steed

The friends of Mr. Robert E. Steed were grieved at the sad news of his sudden 
death, which occurred in Macon Tuesday morning, while he was attending to his 
office duties in the S.S. Dunlap Hardware store.

Mr. Steed was born in Talbot County in 1846.

He joined the army in 1862 and served his country nobly and bravely throughout 
the Civil War.

On his return, he taught two years at Lumpkin and Buena Vista and later took a 
business course at Eastman College, Poughkeepsie, N.Y.  For some years he was 
identified with the firm of Lawton and Willingham.

Some months ago he was stricken with paralysis and sought the healing waters of 
Hot Springs, but his health was never fully restored.  He was the brother of 
our esteemed citizen, Mr. V.A. Steed.

The funeral took place Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock from the residence, 115 
Cleveland Avenue.  Rev. James Smith of the Vineville Methodist Church 
officiating.  Interment in Rose Hill.
