Obituary
On Wednesday morning at a:30 o'clock, Rev. R. A. Moore, a minister
of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, died at his home in the
Flat Rock neighborhood. He had been a victim of tuberculosis for
several years, exemplifying in his patient suffering the faith
that was in him. Besides a wife, four children are left to mourn
the loss of husband and father. He is also survived by two brothers,
W.
D. Moore and Finis Moore, and three sisters, Mrs. Ella
Harper and Misses Nellie and Mollie Moore. The remains were laid
to rest in the Asher graveyard Wednesday and were accompanied
to the place of interment by a large procession of friends and
relatives.
