- DIED - HUFF
- We are considerably pained last week to hear of the sudden
and unexpected death of
- Mr. Samuel HUFF, of Magnolia. He was not well and
called Dr. T. STAIR of this place, Monday morning. The
doctor attended him as well as he was able to do, but from the
first he realized he had a severe case of pneumonia to contend
with, but resolved to do his best. In spite of kind care and
the best of skill, he lingered until Tuesday night, January 24th,
1888, when he passed hence. His age was 67 years.
- We are not familiar with Mr. HUFF's early life, but
have known him casually for
- several years, and always found him an honest, upright christian
gentleman, endeavoring to do just right with all; and more, we
have always heared him well spoken of by his neighbors. He was
a member of the Magnolia M. E. church, and leaves a family grown
to maturity, besides an extensive circle of friends and neighbors
to deplore his loss, - happily his gain. [p. 4, col. 3]
