Tuesday noon our people were greatly surprised to learn of the death at 11 o'clock of Hon. S. S. Lacey. He was upon the street as late as last Friday, and none but a few of the most intimate friends of the family were aware that he was in a dangerous condition. His health has been very poor for a few years, so that his absence from the street was not as noticeable as it would have been some years ago. He was suffering greatly from a complication of liver and kidney troubles, and it was these which finally caused his death.
Mr. Lacey was a perfect gentleman of the old school, highly respected and accomplished, a most agreeable conversationalist and as a natural result made friends of all whom he met. He was ever awake to the best interests of the community in which he had his home, and in years past his fluent pen yielded no small influence in forming public sentiment.
Mrs. Lacey and their two daughters survive to mourn the loss of a good husband and father, whose place can never be filled by another. They have the sincere sympathy of their hosts of friends throughout the county and state. Mr. Lacey's son-in-law Mr. H.P. Churchill is traveling in Mexico, and could not be reached by telegraph, so was debarred from attending the funeral.
Funeral services were held at the house Thursday afternoon, his pastor Rev. W. W. Curry, of the Presbyterian church, officiating. The attendance was very large, and included nearly all the old settlers of this vicinity. The floral offerings were numerous and unusually beautiful and appropriate. Interment was made in Oakridge cemetery, the pall bearers being his young friends, W.J. Dibble, R. S. Rowley, C.S. Joy, C.E. Gorham, C.H. Montgomery, and L.B. Albaugh, while Hon. CT. Gorham, Hon. A. O. Hyde, Hon. H. L. Joy, Jas. M Parsons, David Cunningham and Dr. J. F. Smiley acted as honorary bearers.
