Peter Carnahan had been to see his brother last week and had just come home, leaving him feeling much better and was surprised and shocked to receive notice of his brother's death.

Capt. J. P. Carnahan died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. John Rogers, one and a half miles north of Prairie Grove at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning after a lingering illness. A few weeks ago he went to Kansas City and was operated on for gallstone and seemed to be doing nicely for a while but later became worse and continued so to the end. Deceased was 80 years of age and was born at Cane Hill, this county. He was a graduate of Lebanon Tenn. college, the best and most widely known institution of learning in Tennessee. Capt. Carnahan fought for the Confederacy during the Civil War and was as brave a soldier as ever shouldered a musket.
