Died at Church
A Very Sudden Death Occurred Last Saturday Night

Last Saturday night, between 8 and 9 o'clock a very sudden death occurred at Ephesus Church in the tenth district.
David Crews left home that night in apparent good health to attend preaching at this church, but just before the services began he was taken suddenly ill and died almost instantly. The cause of death was heart failure. The dead body was conveyed home and the grief stricken Congregation was dismissed.
The deceased was 65 years old, a most excellent Christian gentleman, being an active member of the Baptist Church, and a man highly esteemed by all of his neighbors. In his death the community loses a good man and the bereaved family has the sympathy of a large circle of friends. The burial occurred Sunday.
