Esq. Gardner was one Of the best
known and highly respected citi-
zens of the West side of Henderson

he was a lieutenant in the army Of
the confederacy. He was a nem-
Der Of the County Court for years

Esq. Gardner was of the Cumber-
land Presbyterian faith, but we do
not know that he held active mem
bership in that church.
Ever since The PROGRESS was es-
tablished in 1884 Esq. Gardner had
been a good friend and patron Of

and useful life.
