Frank Arnold is dead! He
died at Tullahoma Saturday
night last from paralysis aged
about 73 years. He was born
and raised in Bedford County
and was widely known as one of
worthiest and best of citizens. He
removed but a short while ago
from the 23rd district in which
he had resided from his youth
up. In the civil war he was a
gallant Confederate soldier and
his old companions in arms will
regret to hear of his death. In
all the relations of life whether
as husband, parent, neighbor or
friend he was as true as the
truest and news of his death will
be heard with sorrow. We join in
this regret and tender our sym-
pathies to his bereaved wife and
relatives. Mr. Arnold was a mem-
ber of the Masonic Order and
was buried with Masonic honors
at New Hope Church Sunday
last in the presence of a large
concourse of friends. Peace to
his ashes.
