Death of Rich Allman

Last Saturday morning while plowing in his field, Mr. Rich Allman fell dead. His little son was with him and, according to information at hand, he had reached the end of the row and raised his plow for the little fellow to pull off some grass and dropped the plow and fell over dead. The alarm was given and the family rushed to him and called for assistance but he was past all human aid.

Mr. Allman was about sixty-five years of age and had been in bad health for several years but his condition was not considered serious. He was raised out in the old Cross Roads community and several years ago moved to his present home near Lucedale. His life was spent chiefly in farming, stock raising and timber business. He was a member of the Methodist church, was a good man and a good citizen, never had much to say but his life was devoted to what he believed his duty to his family, his God and his fellowman. He was always found in his seat at the church or Sunday school room during services, a man that believed in and practiced his religion.

Funeral services were held at the Methodist church Sunday at 3 o’clock and buried in the Lucedale cemetery by the side of his son that preceded him to the grave some years ago. Rev. J.A. Moore, his pastor, had charge of the funeral services.

He is survived by his widow, three daughters, Mrs. Howard Whittington, Imogene, and Julia, one son, Grayson, three brothers, John, Andrew and West, three grand-children and other relatives and a host of friends, to whom the Times extends sympathy.
