The Argus is sorry to learn of the death of that splendid man, Manson Stroud, which occurred at his home in Henry county las6t Sunday.
The deceased had been a sufferer for some time from that formidable disease, diabeties, and this disease was the cause of his death.
He was a noble, generous, broadgague man, and will be greatly missed in the community where he lived.
The remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Sardis church on Monday afternoon, after a funeral discourse by Rev. J. A. Bledsoe.
The burial ceremony was impressively conducted by the Masons.
