McCrary, aged 76, who lived prddtically his entire life in Clinton, died Sunday morning at 11 o’clock at the home of his son, L. D. McCrary after being in failing health for several months. The funeral ser vice was held Monday afternoon at 3 o’clock in the Presbyterian cemetery, a large crowd of friends and relatives gathering to pay a last tribute of re spect to one of the city’s oldest and best known citizens.

He continued to live at Martin’s Depot for about a year until the death of Dr. Craig when he re turned to Clinton and bought the in terest in the store of the Utter. In the summer of 1876, his store was de stroyed by fire, after which he entei'ed the cotton business and for a number cf years bought cotton on the Clinton, 1 alirens and Newberry markets.
