Sudden Death
On Wednesday morning, March 6th, Mr. E.H. Herring died very suddenly of apoplexy. Mr. Herring had been complaining several days, but nothing serious was thought. On Tuesday evening about 2 o'clock, his friend asked him to assist in putting a bed on the wagon, after this was done, he started back to the house and got upon the fence and sit there a few minutes when he fell off and was heard to hollow. (this is how it was spelled in the newspaper) The family ran out and with the assistance of Mr. Wilfley, carried him to the house, and after he was put to bed he remarked, "I'm almost gone," and these were the last words he ever uttered. Dr. J.H. Howard was called and rendered all the medical aid possible, when death ensued as above stated. "Pomp", as he was generally called, was well-known to all of our citizens and had many warm friends who will regret to hear of his sudden and unexpected demise. He was about 39 years of age. Many happy moments have numbers of us spent in listening to the sweet strains of music made by "Pomp" but now he has "laid down the fiddle and the bow". He was buried on Wednesday, near his home, in the presence of a large concourse of relatives and friends. He leaves a wife and child and two aged and respected parents. Peace to his ashes.
