-Mr. John A. BROOM of Carmel died this morning at seven o’clock.  He was sixty-seven years old.  He was an old soldier.  His death was sudden, and was caused no doubt by heart trouble.  Only his wife and one child survive, Mrs. S. M. PARKER.  Funeral tomorrow morning at Carmel.

 

[3] Tuesday, December 8, 1903, THE MONROE JOURNAL (Union County, N.C.)

-Mr. Daniel J. WINCHESTER, one of the old landmarks of this township and a most upright and honorable man, died at the home of his son-in-law, Mr. A. W. BOYTE, in Monroe, at three o’clock last Wednesday morning.  He had suffered a long time with Bright’s disease.  Funeral services were held at Carmel Wednesday afternoon by Dr. ROWE and Rev. F. W. BRADLEY, and the body was laid to rest there.  Mr. WINCHESTER was a little over 76 years old.  He was born and reared in Sandy Ridge township, but had been living on his farm two miles south of Monroe, in the Carmel neighborhood, for thirty-six years.  Mr. WINCHESTER married Miss Beatrice HELMS, daughter of the late Capt. Isaac HELMS, who with two sons and two daughters survive him.  The sons are Messrs. Henry A. and James L. WINCHESTER; the daughters are Mesdames A. W. BOYTE and J. W. HINSON.  For years the form of Mr. WINCHESTER was a familiar figure in Monroe and in the Carmel section.  He was a quiet man who looked strictly after his own business.  A member of the Methodist church since boyhood, he lived an upright life that bore testimony to the truthfulness of his profession.
