The February 6, 1908 edition of The Robesonian included the following: News from Rowland - The untimely death of Archie Bracy at Hookerton last Wednesday of pneumonia brings sadness to many hearts. In the very flush of young manhood, with every prospect of a long life, his sudden taking off is a very forcible reminder that "in the midst of life we are in death". His mortal remains were laid to rest in the family burying ground Friday morning, Rev. Mr. Crawford conducting the funeral services after which the Woodmen of the World, of which the deceased was a member, took the body in charge and consigned it to mother earth according to the beautiful rites of that order. To the bereaved relatives, especially to the dear mother, we extend heartfelt sympathy.
His middle name was likely Meekins
