Obit from Lebanon Enterprise
The burial of J.H. Alden at Greensburg, November 12, by the lights of lanterns attracted many spectators. It was a weird spectacle as a procession approached the grave yard, carrying torches and lanterns. The interment was to have been made in the day, but the grave diggers struck rock in the grave and had to blast our a great part of it. As a result they did not get the grave ready until after dark. The funeral services were conducted at the grave by Rev. Metcalf, of the Methodist Church.
Another obit from the Green County Record says he died in the Green County Hotel of pneumonia. He was born and reared in Cincinnati, Ohio, and came to this county when a young man of 22 years. He married Lydia Spillman. He held a responsible position with Berry Allen of Howell & Allen. He was a cousin of Mrs. W.N. Vaughan, Sr. and Leve W. Moore. He was also survived by a younger brother but his whereabouts were unknown.
