Uncle Hamp Faucher, died at his home in Berryville Wednesday morning. He had been a citizen of this country for many years, having been captain of a body of
Confederate soldiers from the section.

The body was taken to Harrison today where it will be interred with Masonic honors.

An Old Land-Mark Gone.
"Again the Angel of death has invaded the
sanctum of a happy home and has taken therefore
one of our best citizens.
"Mr. Hamp Fancher was born in Overton county,
Tennessee, January 9th, 1828, and died in Berryville,
Arkansas, August 11th, 1909. He came to Arkansas with his father, when ten years o1d, and settled at Osage, Carroll county; and was one of the pioneers of this country. At the age of thirty he
married Miss Eliza McKennon, a daughter of old Dr. McKennon of Carrollton. Eight children were born to this union, three only survive him, Judge Thomas H. Fancher and Mrs. Bettie Walker of Oklahoma, and Mrs. Cleavy Bunch, of near Berryville.
When the war broke out between the states Mr. Fancher raised a company of state troops and was in the battle of Oak-hills. When the state troops were disbanded, he enlisted in the Confederate army,
where he remained till the close of the war. His wife having died in 1893, he was again married, this time to Mrs. Mary Hoskins who survives him.
He was a brother to Mr. J. Polk Fancher, of Berryville. He lived on the old homestead on Osage for many years after the war, moving to near Leadhill, in Boone county, where he lived until a few
years ago he moved to Berryville.
"... He was not only noted for his fidelity and
integrity, but was a zealous Christian from his boyhood. Mr. Fancher was buried at Harrison Thursday, August 12th, under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity of which he had been a member for many
years. Besides the grief-stricken family, and brother Masons present, there was old Uncle Dick Fancher, a colored man,who belonged to Mr. Fancher's father and he and Uncle Hamp were raised up boys
together. When uncle Dick heard of the death of Mr. Fancher he came all the way down from Eureka to dig his grave, and when the body had been lowered into its last resting place, Uncle Dick, with tears in
his eyes, requested the Masons to stand back and let him cover up the body as that was the last service he could render him.
"In passing by this grave in future years we can I
truthfully say: There lies an honest man.
