It becomes our sad duty to chronicle the death of one of our best citizens, Mr. Levi Sparks, who died suddenly last Saturday evening. He had been unwell for same time, but was not confined to his bed, he had gone out towards the lot late in the evening, where he was found dead by his son a short while after. He seems to have died without a struggle. He was a deacon of Padgett's Creek church. Had lived a consistent Christian life for a any years, and was often spoken of as one of the best of men. He was in his seventy third year, and was a member of the Masonic fraternity. He leaves five sons and five daughters and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his loss. His remains were laid to rest at Padgett's Creek today with masonic honors. In spite of the inclement weather a large crowd were assembled to pay the last tribute of respect to the honored deceased.
