JAMES W. TANQUARY HAS PASSED AWAY,
Prominent County Merchant Succumbs to Paralysis This Morning
Mr. James W. Tanquary, one of the oldest and most highly esteemed citizens of Eastern Frederick county, died at his home near Burnt Factory at 1.30 o'clock this morning after a long illness with paralysis, the result of injuries sustained over two years ago. At that time Mr. Tanquary was visiting in the West and fell into a ditch where he was staying. He received severe injuries which resulted in paralysis. About a year ago he sustained a second stroke while in Winchester. Since then he has been gradually failing in health.
The funeral will take place on Friday morning at ten o'clock from the Methodist Episcopal Church at Burnt Factory and the interment will be in Mount Hebron Cemetery, this city.
Mr. Tanquary was born in Frederick county seventy four years ago and has been a life long resident of the neighborhood in which he was born. He was of a quiet, unassuming disposition and a man of the strictest integrity and high standing. For fifty years he had been a devoted member of the Burnt Factory Church and for a considerable portion of that time he was a steward in that church.
During the Civil War Mr. Tanquary served in the Confederate Army and was assigned to work in the government shops in Staunton, where harness and saddles were made for the army. Since the war he has conducted a general store at Burnt Factory and has accumulated considerable property.
Mr. Tanquary is survived by one son, Mr. Charles Tanquary, who resides near Burnt Factory.
