HARRIMAN, Tenn, Oct 28. -- Aaron Cormany, aged 76 years, died at his home here Oct. 24. He was a native of Virginia.
Mr. Cormany had returned Thursday of last week from visiting a son and daughter in Lenoir City, and was in his usual health. He attended church Sunday morning, and that night he was stricken with apoplexy, followed by paralysis, and never regained consciousness.
The Rev. E. B. Booth conducted the funeral services, and he was laid to rest beside his wife, who died about five years ago, in the cemetery at Cave Creek, east of Harriman, near where he had resided most of the time since he emigrated from Rural Retreat, Va., to Roane County, Tennessee in the summer of 1848, and where he was a faithful member of the Baptist Church since his arrival there fifty-three years ago. He was a Mason, a noble man and well liked, as was attested by the hundreds who attended the funeral. Surviving him are the following children: J. Frank Cormany, cashier of the Southern Bank and Trust company, of Harriman; Mrs. Francis C. Harvey and Isaac J. Cormany, a merchant on the Kingston pike; James M. Cormany and Mrs. Daisy M. Scarbrough, of Lenoir City, and Thomas M. Cormany, of Crocket, VA.
