Hill, and Lewis White of Mt. Nash, Ky. His mother also lives at Mt. Nash,

died in a Nashville hospital Friday. The body was sent here Saturday

morning. The funeral was at one o'clock at Cedar Hill Church Sunday and he

was laid to rest by his father in the Gross graveyard.



During the funeral great excitement prevailed in the church for a few

minutes when Re. R.W. Cooper who had read a chapter and prayer had been

and was carried from the church to a waiting car which took him to his home.

Rev. Cooper has greatly improved.
