    John H. Grubbs, one of our old and highly asteemed citizens died at his home here 

(Walton, Kentucky) Saturday evening at about eight o'clock from pneumonia.  He had taken 

flu with influenza about two weeks ago, and it developed into pneumonia.  Mr. Grubbs was 

67 years old and was born and reared in Gallatin county, Ky., but had been a resident of 

Walton for the past quarter of a century.  He was a good citizen and a kind neighbor and 

was always ready and willing to assist those in trouble or distress.  He leaves a wife 

and four children, Mrs. Jno. Fink, Mrs. Kate Hight, I. T. Grubbs and Geo. J. Grubbs.  He 

will be missed by his many friends.  The funeral took place from his late home Monday 

afternoon, Rev. E. C. Lacy of the Christian Church, of which the deceased was a member, 

conducted the services, after which the body was laid to rest in the Baptist cemetery.
