James Stanley White, a citizen of this community for 40 years passed away Tuesday at the John Gaston Hospital in Memphis. Mr. White went to Memphis about a week ago for a visit with relatives. He had been in ill health for several years, and death was attributed to complications. His wife preceded him in death about five years ago.
Mr. White was born in Alabama on August 13, 1861, and died Tuesday at the age of 80 years, 2 months, 12 days. He followed the vocation of farming and carpentry, and was well known and held in high regard by many in this section of Missouri.

Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at three o'clock in the Holland Baptist church by Rev. M.A. Massey of Steele, for Mrs. C.H. White, age 69 years and 6 months, who died at her home here Saturday morning, following a week's illness. Mrs. White, who has spent the greater part of her life near Holland, has been in failing health for several months. Her death was attributed to kidney trouble and old age.
