Uncertainty
Read from uncorrected OCR, not from the page image. The OCR prints "Ilr." for "Dr." The item dates the death only as "last Thursday evening" and the cited passage gives no age. The praise it reprints from the Richmond News Leader is that paper's own. His father, surviving sister, wife and son have no records here.
