FINE OLD MAN IS NO MORE
B. D. Hiatt, one of the best known and most respected citizens of the Mt. Moriah section of the county, died at his home Sunday evening at 8 o'clock, after a long illness of tuberculosis. Mr. Hiatt would have been 68 years of age Monday, and most of his life was spent in the section where he died. He had been a faithful and consecrated member of the Mt. Moriah Christian church for 51 years and a deacon for 30 years. Besides his wife, he is survived by seven children, and a host of friends and loved ones will mourn that he is no more. After services conducted by his pastor, Rev. Bowling, the remains of this fine old gentleman were laid to rest in the Mt. Moriah cemetery Monday afternoon.

son of Abner Hiatt & possibly Sarah J. East
Possible birth years are 1842, 1847 or 1848 per different records, BUT he was in 1850 census with dad, Abner & was 8 yrs old, so most probably born 1842, not the 1847 on stone;
KY Death Cert#8420; says died on the 5th, not the 6th as the stone states.
