For several months Mr. McKay
had been not so very well and later
he became worse. In the early
spring be was carried to St. Luke's
Hospital at Richmond, Virginia, at
which place he recovered sufficiently
to return to hia home here, but be
ing absent from the influence* of
that institution his delicate physical
nature became more aggravated un
til the latter part of last week when
** became noeeseary to lake him to
Highamlth Hospital at Fayetteville.
The traatmmit there failed to pro
duce the required restorative effects
on account of the advanced stages
of hit disease and it was thought
boat to bring him home. This was
done Saturday night and In about
ten hours ho was dead.
The funeral was preached Sunday
afternoon at five o’clock from the
residence of Mr. McKay's parents by
Dr. W. R. Cullom, pastor of tha
First Baptist Church. Immediately
after the funeral the interment was

auspices of the local lodge of tha
Knights of Pythias of which he was
