Death of r.. Stuart Hunt.
Deep sorrow has come to the
hearts of many people in Peacham
the unexpected death of /
Stuart Hunt at Beaumont, Texas, on
Wednesday, June 2. No intimation
of his illness had been received until
the arrival of telegram on the Sun
day afternoon preceding. Then came
the message on Thursday morning,
that he was gone. His brother, John
Martin Hunt, from whom the
message of his serious illness
came, started Immediately from
western Kentucky, where busin-
ness had called him, but fail
ed to arrive before Mr.. Hunts
demise. After a funeral service un-
der the auspices of the order of E1ks,
his brother, on Sunday morning, be-
gan the long, sad journey home with
the remains. Mr.. Hunt, who
shriner and a thirty second degree
Mason in the Scottish rites, was fol-
lowed by the sheltering care and at
tention of that order. In New York
City, the sadness and responsibility
of the journey was lightened, for his
brother, by their care, and at the
end of the journey in Peacham, a
delegation from the local Blue Lodge
in DanviIle, was in attendance to do
what it could. Beautiful floral trib-
utes accompanied the remains from
Texas, and the local lodge contribut-
ed an exquisite pillow studded with
lilies. The funeral at
the beautiful cemetery on the hill
crest in Peacham was held in the
solemn shadows of the evening of
June 8. Rufus Stuart
Hunt was born in Manchester, N. H.,
July 4, 1876. His school days were
spent in Peacham and the
Academy prepared him for
college. He entered Burling-
ton University with the class of 1900,
