| Text | Grandpa Dempsey Newby died Sunday evening after a lingering illness of 41 days and was buried Monday at Mineral Springs. He was near 81 years old, an old unavailing believer in the Quaker faith. Being thrown away form his church he was asked to put his membership elsewhere but his quick reply was "I belong to one congregation and won't make a change." In his quiet manner he preferred being alone, hence he would take his dogs and go to the woods. The day before his death his son J. W., said, "Pa, how is it with you?" He said, "All right,". Services conducted by L. H. Taylor. |
