DEATH OF MR. R. R. HUTCHINSON j
Passed Away At the Home of His
Daughter, Mrs. Theo Shelton, At
Mayodan. Sunday, August 7th.
Danbury, Aug. 15.
On Sunday, Aug. 7th, 1910,
the death angel entered the
home of Mrs. Theo D. Shelton,
of Mayodan, and took away our
aged and well beloved father,
Richard R. Hutchinson, after a
long * and well-spent life. He
was born near Buffalo church,
Stokes county, March 9th, 1829,
and died August 7th, 1910 mak
ing his stav on earth 81 years,
4 months and 28 days. Most of
his long life was spent in Stokes
county. He was married to
Miss Docia P. Ward, near Pres
tonville, June 2nd, 1857. Seven
children were born to them, four
of which survive, Chas. R.
Hutchinson, of Meadthvs, Geo.
Hutchinson, of Mullins, S. CV,
Mx*s. Theo. D. Shelton, Mayo
dan, and Mrs. Mary G. Shelton,
of Danbury Route 1, besides
sixteen grand-children and five
: great grand-children. He was
j a volunteer in the Confederate
J war, was mustered into service
I under Colonel Ben Bailey at
, Stokesburg, N. C., Aug. 4th,
j 1862, was put in the 19th
j Battalion Company D., and was
i then in regular service until the
close, and reached home April
9th. 1865. He was converted in
camp near Petersburg about the
year 1864, and some years later
joined the M. E. church South,
and lived a consistent member
j until his death. He lived a
j quiet, peaceful, Christian life,
faithful to every duty, a devoted
husband, a tender and loving
father. During his long sick
ness he was never heard to
murmur, but was thankful for
every favor. While he was not
blessed with much of this
world's goods, I feel that he was
rich in the love and grace of
God. Forty years of my life
was spent in the home with him,
and in all the trials and dis
appointments of life his plea was
always "I am very thankful it is
as well with me as it is."
He praised the Lord on the day
of his death, v and asked a bless
ing on those who stood around
his bedside. While he is gone
from us in the flesh I feel that
he holds a place in the hearts of
his children and friends that
will last as long as life. He was
laid to rest in the family burying
ground, near Prestonville, Aug.
Bth. Funeral- services were
held by Revs. Collins, Joyce and
Wall'
M. G. S.

Dear Reporter:

That a white boy shot and tried
to run the blacks away from
church, while preaching. Will
some good man please tell me
what the whites go to that
colored meeting for ? Do they
hope to be benefited themselves
or do they try to help elevate the
colored people by their presence.
What does it mean, and what
will it come to ?
