2ND MOUNT PLEASANT

––––

The death of Homer Armstrong whose serious sickness we mentioned last week occurred at the home of his Uncle Tom Webb Thursday evening Sept. 29. Funeral Sunday the 2nd [of October], Mt. Pleasant conducted by Rev. P. O. Dun­can and was largely attended. Homer’s death brought sadness to many hearts for he was a good boy and loved by many and the hearts in the home he has left are sadly bereft. Since the death of his father who was a brother of Mrs. Tom Webb and Mrs. James McAlpin he has lived among us making many friends and few if any enemies.
