gold watch by Mr. Smith as a token of appreciation for his long service with 
the present firm and its predecessors.
Funeral services will be held at the First Baptist Church, South Hill, 
Portlock, at 2 p.m.  Burial will be at Mount Olive Cemetery, Berkley.
Among company officials to serve as honorary pallbearers will be R.B. 
Douglass, president, and James A. Monroe, vice president.
Survivors include his wife, Mrs. Minnie Gregg; two daughters, Emma Gregg and 
Mrs. Minnie Maddrey, and two sons, John H. and Nathaniel Gregg, Jr.
