    REV. H. PINKSTON
    Rev. H. Pinkston, father of Mrs. Gordon S. Pritchett, of this city, and one of the pioneer residents of Vernona [sic Verona], Mo., died at his home last Friday evening, April 12, after a lingering illness of seven months duration.

    Rev. Pinkston was born in Washington county, Kentucky, April 12, 1856. He had been a resident of Verona, for thirty-nine years, and an active minister in the Presbyterian church for a period of forty years. He was widely and favorably known, both in religious and civic affairs, as a man of clear thought and vision. His life was one of rectitude and piety and had a wonderful effect for good upon all who knew him, and the entire community together with a wide circle of friends and admirers mourn his passing and revere his memory.

    Funeral services were conducted from the Presbyterian church, Verona, April 15th, in which service nine of his brother ministers from the Carthage Prebytery participated: Dr. Cady, Neosho, Mo., presided; Dr. Geo. Harbour, Carthage, Mo., led the prayer; Rev. A. K. Gurley, Hoberg, Mo., read the scriptures; Dr. Love, Joplin, Mo., preached the sermon; Dr. Me Caughtery, Aurora, Mo., offered prayer after the sermon; Dr. John Stapleton spoke as a personal friend of Rev. Pinkston; Dr. Stapleton was with Rev. Pinkston Friday afternoon before his death that night.

    Dr. Cady performed the last services at the cemetery. At the request of the immediate family, Rev. Pritchett sang “Face to Face” in the service at the church.

    Many beautiful floral offerings were sent.
