Lawson, an old and highly respected citizen of Cades Cove, died Saturday. He was known throughout the county and was one of the best citizens of the cove. He had been a member of the county court for a number of years. His death came after a short illness and many of his friends had not even heard that he was ill, until they heard of his funeral. John McKinsey, a former resident of this city, died in Knoxville Wednesday and was brought here for burial Thursday morning. Rev. Dr. C.B. Lord was 89 years old Tuesday. He has been very sick during the winter, but is now quite well and strong again, and bids fair to round out the century. Shooks---Jones Finger, a well-known man of this place died last Thursday and was buried at Hope Cemetery. Cades Cove---After a lingering illness of seven years, Uncle Dan Lawson died Saturday night, April 1, 1905, at the age of 76 years. He was one of the oldest citizens of our cove, and in his days was a great business man. He was loved and respected by all who knew him and will be greatly missed. But our loss is his eternal gain. He was a good Christian man and was ready and willing to die. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved ones.
