Benajah Gentry, who for forty-four years had been a resident of this county, died at the home of his son, in Newton county, on Christmas night. He was the father of Minor Gentry, one of our best known farmers, and was eighty three years of age. He came to Dade county from Dixon county, Tennessee in 1851, and his home was here until a few months of his death, when he went to the home of his son in Newton county. Mr. Gentry was well know and to his relatives and many friends The Vedette extends sympathy.
