KINGSLEY: (Special Correspondence)
J. B. Bennifield died at the home of his son, northeast of Kingsley, Sunday, February 9, 1908, and the remains were interred in the cemetery two miles east of Fielding, Monday, February 10. The services were conducted at the home of his son. Mr. Bennifield was 79 years, 11 months and 14 days old. He had been in usual health and retired Saturday evening feeling as well as he had for some time. Sunday morning when his son called him, he received no answer and on entering the room he found his father cold in death. The sorrowing relatives and friends have the sympathy of all in their hour of trouble.
