Little, Clerk of Superior Court of Stanly; J. C. Little, also of Stanly; J. B. Little of Florida; T. A. Little of the Long's store section; and Mr. Watt Little, who made his home with his parents.

Mr. Little was a man of upright Christian character. His word was good as his bond. His neighbors recognized him as such, and as a leader. Funeral services were conducted Tuesday at Crooked creek Primitive Baptist church by Elder Henry Taylor. A large crowd attended the services.
