Our Leading
Tobacconist Has
Passed Away
Mr.. c. Austin, ("Diamond C.")
Died Suddenly at His Home
Here Sunday Morning.
Diamond G" is dead.

diamond G" is dead.
This will be severe shock to the
thousands of acquaintance of Mr.. C,
Austin, throughout this section. He
had been in poor health for several
months. He suffered stroke of par
alysis some weeks ago, and lowered
between life and death for several
days. He rallied, and through his de-
termination to take new lease on
life, had been able to get out and
mingle again with our people, and es-
pecially those connected with the to-
bacco interests here.
Mr.. Austin was recognized as the
founder of the Greeneville tobacco
market. Coming to Greeneville more
than thirty-fve years ago he was soon
able to see the possibilities for Greene
vile as a tobacco market. He real
lied that this section of the country
was well adapted to the growth Of
tobacco, and he was POSSIBLY the first
to grow crop in this county. He did
not undertake it on a large scale,
merely planting as an experiment,
several kinds of tobacco. As will be
remembered the Greeneville market
sold only bright tobacco, the flue-
cured grades, for many years. This
industry alone grew rapidly and sew
cal million pounds of bright tobacco
was sold here for number of years,
brought about through the efforts of
Mr.. Austin and the experiments he
had made. Some years ago he realiz-
ed the possibilities Of hurley tobacco
market here and began to advocate
the growing of bulrey. He spent
much time in instructing our farm
ers how to grow the hurley crop. He
took delight in giving the farmer
information that he felt would be
helpful to him. His advice was eager
y sought by our people, and many ar
ticles pertaining to the culture of this
crop have been written by him and
published broadcast. His greatest de- !
light the past few years seemed to
lave been in the fact that he had liv-
dto see Greeneville become great
obacco center. While he had not re-
LIKED what he was entitled to from
lis efforts in financial way, he had
cen successful to the degree that he
ad helped others. His timely advice
ill be greatly missed by our tobacco
len. His presence on the sales floors
rom day to day was a stimulus to
connected with the local
larket. That he willbe greatly miss
d goes without saying. 's- @'s 6
Mr.. Austin is survived by his wife
nd three children. One son, Mr..
red Austin, is located in California.
lis other son, Mr. Clyde B. Austin,
nd daughter, Mrs. W. H. Armitage,
eside in Greeneville.
Funeral services took place from a
is late residence on Church street,
lis afternoon at 2 O'clock. The pail
carers were selected from the tobac-
} buyers and warehouse men of the
ty. The floral offerings were most
eautiful, and attested to small de-
rec, the high esteem in which he was
cid by our people. Interment took
ace in Oak Grove cemetery.

What man wants in a wife is not
diversion and entertainment but COM
