Seymore Chisman, was born Aug. 17, 1880, died on Sunday April 3, 1892. He was the son of W.W. and Louisa Chisman, who live two miles west of Augusta. He was one of five children, obedient, loving and dutiful. His mother died some eight years ago, leaving him motherless but he found in his step mother the same motherly affection. He was a member of Lillie Lake sabbath school, and showed a promise of a noble manhood. On his return home from his sister's, Mrs. Knapp on last Sunday evening, his horse stumbled and fell, throwing him forward and falling upon him crushing his skull, killing him instantly. The funeral was conducted by Rev. E.C. Pollard, on Monday at the home. A large procession followed his remains to the city cemetery.
