time of his demise.

The deceased is survived by one daughter, Mrs. John L. Calhoun, of Winnfield,
and two sons, D. H. Wallace and J. E. Wallace, of Verda, and a host of
grandchildren.

Funeral services were held at Verda Tuesday afternoon with interment in the
Mars Hill Cemetery.

Mr. and Mrs. Calhoun and family from here attended the services.
