"The community has been called to mourn the loss of one of its valuable citizens and the church at Connestee one of its members in the death of Seaborn Bryson, which occurred on July 15, 1897. Mr. Bryson had been a member of the Methodist church for some time and his funeral was conducted by Rev. L. A. Falls on Saturday last. Interment was at Oak Grove cemetery. His sickness was very brief. He received an injury from a fall 11 days before he died which possibly hastened the end but was not the immediate cause of his death, that having been caused by fever."
