Obituary of Samuel Carter Stout:
A man of more than ordinary prominence passed away Monday, when death claimed Captain Samuel C. Stout who died at the home of his daughter and son-in-law Rev. & Mrs. F. V. Harwood on East Main St.

Captain Stout served through the Civil War and was very popular and prominent among his associate Federal soldiers. There are probably not more than 8 or 10 left in the counrty.

He would have been 84 yrs. old next April. He retained his usual vigor until very recently when he complained some, but the end came very suddenly and unexpectedly. He was a member of the Methodist Church - very devoted and was held in the highest esteem by his own people wherever he was known.

His wife died several years ago and afterward he moved from his farm on Fallen Timber and has since lived with Mrs. Harwood. He leaves 1 son and 4 daughters: Mr. J. J. Stout of Xenie, Ohio, Mrs. Harwood, Mrs. Yancy Matthews, Mrs. Wood Stringfield, and Mrs. Henry Garrett all of this county. The burial was in the family cemetery on the old home place, yesterday after funeral services by Rev. J. W. Caughron of Tompkinsville.
