Suits for Damages Against New Road
Suits for damages against the Knoxville, LaFollette & Jellico road caused by the construction of the road have begun in circuit court. There are four suits and tow more are to be brought by adjoining property owners. The suits have been brought by Maj. T.S. Webb, T.S. Webb, Jr., F.S. Hazen, and M.L.G. Baker. These gentlemen own a residence on the Middlebrook pike at Third Creek and the residences of them are confronted with the new road that is now being contracted. The fine old country place of Major Webb is cut in two and the adjoining places are cut up badly. The construction of the road is now going on and damages are asked for the injury to the property and to the comforts of the old places. These suits are all brought by the legal firm of Webb, McClung & Baker. -Sentinel | |

Death of W.A. Richardson
It is with genuine sadness that we are this week called upon to report the death of our townsman, W.A. Richardson, after an illness of about four weeks of typhoid fever, death occurring Tuesday night about 12 o’clock. Mr. Richardson was a man well known and generally respected throughout this entire section, having been raised from boyhood in this immediate section. He was a man of true Christian character, just and upright, ever willing to lend a hand to the up building of the cause of Christ. He had been a consistent member of the Baptist church for years, and at the time of death was one of the trustees of the new Baptist church at this place. In church matters he was faithful and liberal, and when the end came he trusted his soul to Him who gave it with true Christian fortitude and childlike trust and simplicity. His life throughout has been a lesson in sobriety, honesty, honor and industry, and in his death we can say in all candor that Campbell County has lost one of the best and most respected citizens. Mr. Richardson leaves a wife and three children, besides an aged father and mother to all of whom our citizens extend their heartfelt sympathy. Funeral services were held Thursday at 11 o’clock at Douglas Chapel, Rev. Booth officiating, assisted by Rev. Lusty. One of the largest crowds ever assembled in LaFollette for a similar sad mission gathered to pay their last respects to their beloved friend and neighbor. Interment too place in Douglas cemetery. | |
