Last Tuesday afternoon, after a short illness, the subject of this article peacefully met his God. He was born and reared on the farm where he died, and was known throughout the country as the very embodiment of honesty. He was a brother of Mr. R.R. Conover, and the two brothers were never separated until death entered their home.
The deceased was unmarried, was seventy years old, and a zealous member of the Baptist Church. The funeral services were held at the residence Wednesday afternoon, Rev. J.P. Scruggs officiating. The interment was in the family burying ground, on the farm, many relatives and friends being present.
The deceased will be greatly missed by a large circle of friends, but the one who has received the saddest blow is the brother, who was with him from infancy to old age. May the God of heaven comfort him in his sad bereavement.
