THE MARYVILLE RECORD July 8, 1904
Friday, July 8, 1904



David Whitehead, near Montvale, died Tuesday, aged 83 years. He had been in

poor health for some time. The funeral services were held at Six Mile Church

Wednesday and the remains laid to rest in that cemetery.



At Sevierville, the town marshall, S.F. Rogers, shot and killed Cal Lewallen,

whom he had arrested for being drunk and disorderly, last Monday. The marshall

claims that Lewallen offered resistance to such an extent that it became

necessary for him to shoot in order to protect his own life.



Mary Armstrong from south of town was declared of unsound mind and taken to

the asylum at Knoxville Wednesday.



Lawrence Long’s little baby boy died Wednesday morning, aged about two years.

The funeral was Thursday morning, with burial in Magnolia Cemetery.



Cades Cove---Jasper Lawson, widower, has a charming daughter but he will not

let anyone court her. We would advise him to court a little less himself as

the daughter seems to think what is right for dad is right for her.



George Henry, one of the most prominent citizens of the 12th District, died

June 30, at 5 o’clock P.M., after a short illness in the 77th year of his age

and was buried at 3 o’clock in the Wildwood Cemetery July 1, after the funeral

services at the Southern Methodist Church of which he was a member. Mr. Henry

was a man who will be greatly missed by the community. He was a man of the

strictest integrity and by merit held the confidence and esteem of the

community in the very highest degree. Mr. Henry was a successful man of

affairs and leaves a considerable estate and is survived by two sons, Duff and

Tobe.
