  	Death of R.P. Craghead R.P. Craghead, aged 83 years, died at his home, two miles north of Ham's Prairie, Saturday afternoon at 5:00 o'clock. Mr. Craghead had been ailing for sometime and his death was attributed to general debility. He was one of the oldest native residents of the Kingdom. He was an active man in his earlier days and even in later years showed a vitality that was surprising. Mr. Craghead was born February 7, 1828, and was married to Nancy C. Hall in 1861. Eight children were born of this union, two preceeding the father in death. Mrs. Craghead died several years ago. Surviving the father are one daughter and five sons, Mrs. Medora Stambaugh, Lee, Edward, Gus, Morton and James L. Craghead. He united with the Methodist church about 22 years ago under the ministry of Sam Jones and remained a member until his death. Funeral services were conducted at the Ham's Prairie Methodist church Sunday afternoon by Rev. R.F. Davis, of Fulton and interment occurred in the Ham's Prairie cemetery.
