Obituary.

The funeral services of Henry Davidson, who died last Saturday [February 20, 1897] morning at 6:30 o'clock, took place at the residence of his brother-in-law, Jas. W. Reser, last Monday afternoon, conducted by S. W. Scott, pastor of the M. E. church. Deceased, who was the son of the late Allen Davidson, was born near this place and lived here up to a few years ago, when he located in Muncie, Indiana, where he had employment in one of the shops at that place. In April, 1895, he was married to Miss Cora Belle Fitzgerald and to them was born one child. A few months ago poor health compelled him to resign his position and he came to this place with the hope that a short rest would prove beneficial to him, but the skilled hand of the physician was not able to stay the progress of that dreaded disease, consumption, and he succumbed to the inevitable. The deceased was 27 years, 11 months, and 13 days old. He leaves a wife, one child, four sisters and one brother.
