Death Notices of Mr. J. R. Fuller of Shiloh & Bernice, Union Parish Louisiana

Mr. J. R. Fuller of Bernice Dead.

   News reached Farmerville Tuesday morning over the telephone of the death of 
Mr. J. R. Fuller of Bernice, which had occurred Monday night. We could not learn any 
of the particulars as to the immediate cause of his death but as he had been in bad 
health for some time and as he was well advanced in years, his death, no doubt, was 
due to these two causes.

   Mr. Fuller was one of the oldest citizens of the parish and has been a prominent 
man of that section for many years. For a long time he was one of the leading business 
men of Shiloh, moving from there to Bernice when the new town was founded, where he 
has been connected with various business enterprises. He was, at the time of his death, 
and for several years prior, President of the Bank of Bernice, of which his son, 
Mr. Y. S. Fuller, is cashier.

   Eminently successful in his business operations, having accumulated much of this 
world's goods, and being always ready to take the front in any matters pertaining to 
public improvement in his town or community; having a heart that overflowed with the 
milk of human kindness and being always ready to extend a helping hand to those who 
were needy or in distress, Mr. Fuller was a man whom any town could well be proud to 
claim as a citizen, and in his death the town of Bernice has lost one whose place 
cannot easily be filled.
