He was in his usual health until about a year ago when he contracted a complication of stomach troubles which baffled medical skill. He was taken to his bed five weeks ago and remained there until death released him from his physical suffering. During his illness he was patient and all was done for him that a loving mother and father could do. He was conscious to the last and bid parents and an only brother a last good by assuring them that he was willing and ready to go. Besides a large circle of friends and relatives he leaves a sorrowing father and mother and brother to mourn their loss in his early death. Funeral services were held at the Nashville church on Monday, September 9th at 2:30 p.m. and burial at the pence cemetery, Rev.D. F. Boomershine officiating.
