      Homer Barrier, age 36, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clevie Barrier of Carmi, Illinois, died at the Outwood Veterans Hospital at Dawson Springs last Friday following a sickness from Tuberculosis from which he had been suffering for some time. He became sick while in the army, encamped in Wyoming during a severe cold winter and was given a medical discharge from the services. He returned to his home in Illinois and later entered a veterans hospital there and was transferred to Outwood a few months ago.

      Homer was born at Barrier, October 23, 1911, and moved to Monticello when a small boy. He attended the local school and graduated from the Monticello High School. He married Margaret Simpson, who died in Detroit where they were residing on October 16, 1934. He had been living in Carmi, Illinois for the past several years where he worked in the oil fields.

      His remains, accompanied by his parents and two brothers, Claude and Roy and their families, came here Saturday and the funeral services were held at the First Baptist Church of which he was a member by the pastor Rev. C.R. Barrow Sunday afternoon with burial at the Elk Spring Cemetery.

      The pall bearers were: David Duncan, Kindrick Crawford Jr., Earl McCorkle, Leland Tate, Jack Phillips, David Tate, Oral Bertram, Bill Wray and Stanley Daugherty.
