He first, some months ago, having cut himself with an edged tool, and from which blood poisoning seems to have originated. The deceased was a brother of Rev. Alex Hunt of South Pittsburg and was about 45 years of age and belonged to the Cumberland Presbyterian Church at Pine Grove, near this place. He had many friends, as was evidenced by the very large crowd which attended his funeral, which was conducted by Revs. D.M. Kerr, and S.P. Fryor, from the church at that place. His remains were laid to rest in the cemetery nearby. To the sorrowing ones we would say weep not as those who have no hope, for we believe their loss is his eternal gain.
