H. PENICK SUCCUMBED SUNDAY Remains Buried in Good Hope Grave Yard Near Custer. Mr. R. H. PENCIK, one of the most highly esteemed residents of Breckinridge County, passed away Sunday morning at 9:45 at the home of his son, David PENICK and Mrs. PENICK in Hardinsburg. Mr. PENICK had been ill for about a week, and owing to his advanced years, his condition was considered grave from the first. All of his children were gathered at his bed-side when the final summons came. A short funeral service was held at the residence in Hardinsburg, Monday morning by the Reverend Roe, pastor of the Southern Methodist Church. Afterwards, the remains were taken to Good Hope grave yard near Custer for interment where the Reverend Mitcham pronounced the benediction. Mr PENICK was 76 years old (this sentence was printed up-side down). He formerly lived in Custer, and since the death of his wife a few years ago, he has made his home with his son, David. Surviving him are five children: Clarence PENICK of Idaho Reverend R. O. PENICK of Whitesville, Daviess County, Kansas (should this be Ky not Kansas?) Mrs. W. P. (William & Fannie)) ROMINE of Lawrence, Kansas in Douglas County. Morton PENICK of Harfalo (should be Buffalo), Ky in LaRue County. David PENICK of Hardinsburg, Ky in Breckinridge County.
