*********************************************************************************************
Mr. Lanier moved to Colorado a few years prior to his death due to declining health. His health was improved enough that he returned to Nashville and engaged in business. After suffering another relapse, he returned to Colorado with the intention of making it his permanent residence.
He was a well-known business man in Nashville and considered to be noble, upright, and a Christian gentleman. He was the son of the late Church Lanier, one of Davidson County’s most prominent citizens, and for years a county officer.
He was survived by his sister, Mrs. George Stratton.
