Arlendo M. Neese
Former Alamance Man, Retired Lexington Business Man Fires bullet Into His Head.
Arlendo M. Neese, aged about 67, retired business man, of Lexington, who had been in declining health for four or five years, fired a bullet into his brain at his home at 9:45 o'clock Sunday morning.
Mr. Neese who was a native of this county, had lived in Lexington about 25 years and for 12 years was president of an ice and coal company here, and closely connected with several furniture manufacturing enterprises. He was a mild mannered popular man, widely known throughout this section. About four years ago he suffered a stroke from which he never fully recovered and last year fell and broke a hip. Lately his mind is said by friends to have broken at times under the strain of long invalidism.
The Widow, who lives in Lexington; three sons, Arthur Neese of Haw River; Paul Neese, of High Point, and Talmadge Neese, of Greenville, S. C.; three brothers, one half-brother and three sisters, all of this county survive.
Brief services were held from the home in Lexington at 10 o'clock yesterday morning and interment at the old home church of the deceased, Mr. Hermon Methodist Protestant church below Graham, at 1:30 o'clock yesterday.
