The Tribune (Henderson) 1 May 1873
Died

At the residence of Marcus Harris, Esq, in Orange county, NC on Thursday evening 
the 17th of April, Dr. Samuel Duty in the 83d year of his age. Dr. Duty was a 
native of Granville county and was widely and favorably known as a man of energy, 
truth and moral honesty. For several yeas he was an itinerant minister of the M. 
E. Church but for near forty years of the latter part of his life, he was an 
acceptable minister of the Missionary Baptist Church. Dr. Duty was the father of 
thirteen daughters (and no son) eleven of whom lived to be grown, and all of them 
have been first class teachers and preceptresses. He was perhaps the only man in 
this county who ever received the degree of M. D. on the "Thompsonian" plan. He 
leaves an aged widow and a large circle of friends.
