Mr.. w. w. TlNSLEY DEAD.
He Passes Away Suddenly While on q
Visit to Ashland.

The DispatcNs Ashland correspondent
last night sent the following special tell
ing of the death there of well-known and
popular resident of Richmond:
MIR. w. W. Tinsley, of Richmond, who
has been in Ashland for few days, died
quite suddenly to-day at the residence OF
J. p. Gordon, ESQ.,. his brother-in-law.
Mr.. Tinsley was one of the best-known
and most popular young gentlemen IN
Richmond, having been with Messrs.
Fourourean. Price & Co. for many years,
and was off on a vacation for the benefit of
his health. He was son of the late
Peter Tinsley. who resided Just outside OF
Ashland, and brother of Mr. b. L. Tins
lev, one of Richmond's most progressive
merchants. His funeral will take place
Monday morning from Mr.. Gordon's resi-
dence, and friends who wish to attend the
ceremonies can come up on the early morn
ing mail tram.
Mr. Tinsley's death was quite shock to
our citizens, as he came up from Richmond
last Wednesday feeling improved both IN
health and spirits. He was in the forty
second year Of his age and was fine look
ing and robust gentleman. His family
have the sympathies of our entire commu-
nifty. as he was looked upon as one of Ash
lands best boys.
