Obituary.
Samuel Cunningham.

Samuel A. Cunningham died at his
home ir Chattanooga at 2 o'clock a. m.
Friday, March II, aged 70 years.
He was the oldest son of DR.. Sam b.
Cunningham, the first president of the
East Tennessee and Virginia railroad.
He was united in marriage April 26,
1860, to Miss Alice Nelson, daughter of
the late Judge Thomas A. r. Nelson.
He was the owner of the Watauga
Flouring mills at Carter's depot until
1876 when he removed to Jonesboro
and lived there until 1882, when he
went to Chattanooga to reside and for
many years was actively engaged in
business there. He was manager OF
@. Aultmand & Co.. s business until
same was discontinued He was after
wards the senior member Of the firm
of Cunningham & Mcpherson until its
discontinuance on account of enfeebled
health in 1903. At one time in the
early seventys he was the honored
judge of the county court of Carter
county.
The above sad announcement will
bring sorrow not only to his immediate
family, but to a very wide circle of
relatives and friends all over East
Tennessee who respected and loved
this good man and his many sterling
virtues and excellences of heart and
hand.
The writer knew him well, and the
highest tribute / can pay him is,
never knew o better man and was never
enriched by the fri endship of q truer
friend. In all the relations Of life he
lived up to the full measure OF all that
was highest and noblest and best, and
leaves q record for uprightness and
probity OF character which few men
have ever won. 1t ia not true that "the
good die Arst," for here was one who
