W. J. Carpenter of Chatham Dies of Heart Disease

U. B. Carpenter, local merchant, was called to Monroe Thursday morning, the
cause being the death of his brother, W. J., who died that morning in the St.

The deceased, who was 42 years of age at the time of his death, had been
apparently in good health until about three weeks before his death, which was
said to have been due to a heart disease.

widow, a son and daughter, three brothers, Luther of Chatham, Roy and U. B. of
Winnfield, and his mother Mrs. Mary Carpenter of Hot Springs, Arkansas.
