THOMAS HOLLAND BARNES

DEATH OF DR. THOS. H. BARNES

   Dr. Thos. H. Barnes died in Suffolk Wednesday afternoon in his eighty-third 
year.  He was easily one of the most prominent men of Tidewater Virginia and 
was well-known throughout the State as a physician, statesman and a staunch 
Democrat.  He represented his native county, Nansemond, in the legislature, 
was a member of the constitutional Convention, and county chairman.  He was a 
member of the board of visitors of William and Mary College and of the Medical 
College of Virginia.  He was well known and loved in Franklin where he 
frequently visited, and perhaps numbered more warm personal friends than any 
other man in this part of the State.  The funeral will be held from his home 
in West Washington street, Suffolk, Saturday morning at 11 o’clock.
