We are grieved this week to chronicle the death of Mr. Nash Flanagin, which sad event occurred at this home at about five o’clock on Monday morning.

Up to ten days before his death Nash Flanagin was one of our most perfect specimens of robust health, and in that death came so sudden it makes the taking away all the more sad. The cause of death was a complication of bowel troubles brought on by a severe case of cholera morbus on Saturday Feb 2 and though the most skillful of medical men were called in on the case, it was given out several days before his death that there were no hopes for his recovery.

The funeral was preached by Rev. H.L. Winburne assisted by Rev. J.E. Green, and the remains were laid to rest in Rose Hill Cemetery, attended by an unusual large crowd of relatives and friends, although it was a cold and disagreeable morning.

Our city will miss the genial, kindly Nash Flanagin, and it will be a long time before we become used to not seeing him among us and hearing his cordial, friendly greeting. Though quiet and unassuming indisposition, he was truly a good man, and through his unswerving integrity of character and honesty of soul he welded many strong friends to him who could not be broken away even by death. Sixteen years ago he professed Christianity and joined the Presbyterian church, and shortly before his death declared that he was prepared to die and ready to meet his Maker.

The deceased was born here, being a son of the late Governor Flanagin, and has lived among this people all of his fifty-two years. He leaves a wife and five children, all of whom live here expect Harris, a son by his first wife, and to all of whom we extend our heartfelt and sincere sympathy in this sad hour of bereavement.
