Thomas Pafford died at his home
in Flatwoods last Sunday. Mr..
Paford was about As years of age,
single and lived to himself. He
was of an inventive turn of mind,
his first effort being a sewing ma
chine. Later he studied photogra-
ply, and some of his group and
double Photographic work were of
rare merit. His most recent ex-
pertinent, a machine to wind ball
twine, was completed about two
years ago, and it is an ingenious
little machine which he Whitfield
out with penknife. He was also
an expert with the needle, and some
of his hand work and embroidery
will compare favorably with the
best specimens seen in our dry
goods stores. With it all he was I.
companionable, high-minded chris
tian gentlemen, whose death has
cast feeling OF sorrow over the
entire community. He was the
son of Thomas Pafford, who died
about forty-four years ago. His
mother, Mrs. Lana Pafford, died
atLexingten aboutseven yearsago.
His remains were taken to Lexing-
ton Monday by Milton Pafford, L.

ford Of Lexington and Milton Paf-
