G. A. R. VETERAN LAID TO REST BY COMRADES

Funeral services were held Sunday at the home of the late Samuel E. Bayes, who passed to his rest, Friday evening, July 30, at the age of 72 years. He was a native of Johnson County, Kentucky and served three years and three months in the 14th Kentucky Infantry. He was a member of the local G. A. R. Post.

He was an ordained Minister of the Gospel, having been ordained in Kentucky by the Southern Baptist Convention and was for many years in the active ministry, an able preacher, and of a lovable disposition. The service was conducted by P. H. Davies, pastor of the Baptist Church, the members of the choir helping in the singing. The casket was carried to the cemetery by the comrades of the G. A. R.

The widow and family have the deep sympathy of the community. Three daughters and four sons remain to cherish the memory of a loving father, Sandford, Daniel, Ellen, Chap, Dorcas, Elijah and Margaret.
