He was 94 years old. His wife who survives him is 92 years old. The couple had been married 68 years. The following children survive him: Samuel, Frank, James and one daughter. Mr. Snapp was born in Shenandoah County, Virginia and came to this part of the country when it was but a vast wilderness. He located near what is now known as Westville and there established himself in the black smithing business, at which avocation he continued until a few years ago. Mr. Snapp was a Baptist of pure faith, being faithful to all duties of his church until the end came. The funeral was held from the Nettle Creek church yesterday at 11 o'clock. Mr. SNAPP was for many years in possession of an herb that was a cure for cancer, and hundreds of people from all over the country came to him to be cured of this much dreaded disease. The community will lose a good citizen and the family a good and kind parent.
