  • Notes 
    • GRITTON
      Died at his home on Salt river, last Wednesday night, Mr. N. L. ?? Gritton, aged 84 years. The deceased had from childhood been a consistent member of the Methodist church, and was doubtless ready for the summons. Besides his devoted wife he leaves to mourn their loss, Messrs. William, Orie and Lige, and their sister, Mrs. W. G. Vaughn. Funeral services were conducted at the Methodist church in our village, and the remains laid to rest in Providence cemetery.
      (Harrodsburg Sayings, Harrodsburg, Mercer Co, Ky, Thu Jan 31, 1901)
