THE MARYVILLE RECORD March 4, 1904
THE MARYVILLE RECORD



Friday,  March 4, 1904



Mrs. Goddard, wife of James A. Goddard, cashier of the Bank of Maryville died

suddenly Tuesday noon from apoplexy, just as she was leaving the dinner table.

She leaves a large family of children to mourn her death. The remains were

laid to rest in the Magnolia Cemetery Wednesday afternoon. She had a host of

friends who were shocked at news of her sudden death.



Sunday night at 11:30 o’clock occurred the death of Hugh L. McNutt, one of

Blount’s highly esteemed and prosperous citizens at his home three miles from

town. He was born May 6, 1834, and was therefore 69 years, 9 months and 22

days old at the time of his death. He was married to Amelia E. Tipton March

13, 1856, who died nearly three years later. Two children were born of this

union, Mrs. Arch Hitch and Mrs. Sam Clark. On December 19, 1860 he was married

to C.J. Ambrister who survives him. Eight children were the result of this

union, seven of which survive him, the first dying at the age of one year. He,

with his wife, were members of Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church for many years, but

frequently during his illness expressed his intention of moving his membership

to Maryville Baptist Church. Mr. McNutt was a good citizen and a token of the

esteem which the people held him was the large concourse of friends who met at

his home Tuesday to pay the last tribute of respect to him. The funeral

services were conducted by Rev. W.L. Cate, Pastor of the Baptist Church,

assisted by Dr. Wilson and Rev. H.A. Goff, at the home, after which the large

funeral cortege moved out to Magnolia Cemetery, where the remains were

tenderly laid away in the silent city of the dead.



Say, if a lot of the worthless dogs about town should accidentally get killed

off, wouldn’t it be lonesome here?



Mrs. Henry Rueter received a telegram Wednesday afternoon telling that her

brother at Clarksville, Missouri, had been accidentally shot and killed that

morning. She left for Missouri the next morning.



John H. Everett and wife, newly married, arrived from Texas last Friday

morning and spent several days here visiting relatives, before leaving for

their home in Bryson City, North Carolina.



Dunkin---Mr. Alex Vaughn who has been in the west for twenty years is visiting

his sister, Mrs. Ike Russell of this place.



Dunkin---The funeral of Mr. Sinclair DeArmond took place at his late residence

last Tuesday morning after which the remains were taken to Clark’s Grove for

interment, where song and prayer service was held and the body viewed for the

last time. Mr. DeArmond was an aged and highly respected Christian gentleman.

Much might be said in honor of the children and the grandchildren; of their

constant care and attention during his old age and sickness, making his last

days his best days. Surely they have obeyed the fifth commandment.
