of Two Prominent Residents of Liberty Township
James C Haymond, an aged and respected citizen of Liberty township, died at his home Monday afternoon, of kidney trouble, from which he had been a sufferer sometime. The Democrat extends to the family its sympathy in the loss of their husband and father. A strange co-incidence is connected with Mr. Haymond's death; in just twenty minutes after his demise the death of his brother-in-law, John Moore, occurred at his home south of Waldron. He was also an aged and highly respected citizen of that community and beloved by all who knew him. Mr. Moore had been preparing for his death lately. Some time ago while talking at a prayer meeting, of which he was a regular attendant, he astonished those present by stating that he had reached that age when it was time to pass to the great beyond and that he was prepared and ready to be called, and that he did not care how soon he was summoned. He was in this city about six weeks ago, and while here went to the undertaking establishment of Cummins & Edwards and stated that he desired to select a casket, robe &c; for his own burial. After selecting an outfit he returned home, and has been doing light work about his barn until a few days ago when he was taken with nervous prostration and his death occurred as stated. He will be buried in the casket selected by himself.
