Obit of Isaac Winters, Civil War Vet

Isaac Winters, a well known and highly respected resident of South Point, laid down life's battle Sunday, and answered the call of his Maker. His demise was due mainly to the infirmities of old age, the deceased having reached the 84^th milestone of life. He was prominently connected in his neighborhood, and also in this city and all who ever made his acquaintance were his friends. He also had the proud distinction of fighting for his country during the Civil War, when he was connected with the Tenth Kentucky cavalry.

A beloved wife and seven children survive his death. The children were William, at home; George, of Cutler, Ill; Ira, of Ashland. The funeral services will take place this afternoon from his late residence, with Rev. T. F. Carey officiating. Interment in the family burying grounds.
