A. B. TINSLEY PASSES TO HIS REWARD.
On last Thursday morning March 17th at 12:30 o'clock the soul of A. B. Tinsley passed into Eternity. Several hours before his death his faithful wife and the loyal friends who had been watching for the end for so long, discovered that he was quietly sinking to rest and when his life went out into the great beyond it was as if he had fallen asleep.
Mr. Tinsley was stricken with paralysis five years ago, since which time he had considered himself a great burden on his wife and friends and while at times he was able to be about his business he never rallied and as the repeated strokes would come he gradually grew worse until during his last few weeks of suffering the pain threw him into convulsion at times which seemed to impair his mind.
He was prominent in the business world and among business men, having at one time owned the noted mines at Mayfield and associated with Mr. S. W. Cooley in mineral mines here and elsewhere. Among his holdings now is 1,200 acres of
valuable land near Yelville, Arkansas. In his prime he was among the best and most influential business men and by them looked up to and respected.
Deceased was 51 years old at the time of his death and was a member of the Elk and I. O. O. F. organizations. He had been reared in Indiana until manhood, when he located first in Paducah then Kuttawa and subsuquently Marion where he made one of our best citizens. The remains were shipped to Kuttawa on Friday where the last tribute was paid his memory by Rev. Thompson of the Presbyterian
church. He leaves a wife and three children who have the sympathy of the citizens of Marion in their deep grief.
