MR. NEWT YANCY'S DEATH REMOVED A FINE CITIZEN-
Mr. Newton Yancy, a life-long citizen of Sarepta, died at his home on December the 7th, very suddenly. His son, Fred, found him dead at the barn. Mr. Yancy was approximately 83 years of age. He was a Master Mason, a member of the Baptist church, having joined both more than fifty years ago. He lived at the place where he died for over 35 years, and was a powerful factor in the development of the community, in fraternal progress and in Christian work. He was truthful, he was just and he was fond of his friends to a remarkable degree.
We could say a great many kind things about Mr. Yancy truthfully- and we are sincerely sorry that in some way we failed to learn of his death until this week.
His friends were legion, and his standing in his community was that of a high-grade, honest, intelligent and sympathetic gentleman. We regret to note his passing- and know that the community and the county has lost a man worth while. Peace to his ashes.
