WILLIAM E. BIvENs DEAD.

A venerable, useful and much
esteemed citizen of Camden, who
was from almost young manhood
identified with the town and its
people, passed away in the death
of William e. Bivens Wednesday
afternoon. For long years he had
been engaged in the undertaken
business, in which he exemplified
the integrity and probity that
characterized his. life, and as a
citizen he fulfilled his duties as
he understood them. His death
removes another of the older citi-
zens, now becoming few in number,
who have witnessed Camden s
growth from a mere village to a
town Of about 700 people and have
impressed themselves and their
influence in it's upbuilding. Fun
eral services were conducted by
Rev. Il. B. Graham and the body
was given burial with Masonic
honors at Camden Cemetery yes
terday afternoon. The bereaved
family and relatives have the SYM
pathy of many friends.
