(He was to be buried next to his mother, Mrs. Ella Johnston, wife of the late John A. Johnston, but there was litigation regarding the plot, and he was buried elsewhere in Grove Hill.)




The body of Clyde Cosby, Terrell resident who died Saturday, remained in a Terrell funeral home Tuesday pending outcome of a dispute over a burial plot at Grove Hill Cemetery, to be decided before Judge Sarah T. Hughes in Fourteenth District Court Wednesday.

Grove Hill Cemetery officials were temporarily restrained from burying Cosby's body Tuesday by Judge Hughes on application by Mrs. Rebecca A. Johnston, Cosby's step-grandmother, who claims title to the cemetery lot next to that of Cosby's mother, the late Mrs. Ella Johnston, who was the wife of the late John A. Johnston, son of the plaintiff.

Mrs. Allyne Cosby, widow of the deceased, intervened in the case Tuesday, seeking to have the injunction dismissed and her husband buried. Judge Hughes ordered testimony in the strange case for 9 a. m. Wendesday.

Clyde Cosby, Terrell man who died Saturday, was buried Wednesday at Grove Hill Cemetery, but not in the grave plot over which a title dispute raged in the Fourteenth District Court before Judge Sarah T. Hughes.

Judge Hughes Wednesday continued in force a temporary order restraining the burial of Mr. Cosby in the disputed cemetery lot, title to which is claimed by Mrs. Rebecca A. Johnson, step-grandmother of Cosby. Judge Hughes also denied the intervention filed by Mrs. Cosby, the widow.

Hearing on the case has been set for 9 a. m. Friday.
