Rufus Hourigan, who lives near Gravel Switch owns a violin which is said to be a genuine Stradivarius. According to the inscription on the instrument it is nearly 200 years old. If the violin is genuine, as many believe that is, it is very valuable and should Mr. Hourigan desire to dispose of it would command a fancy price.

David G. Hourigan, 46 years old, a farmer and one of the best known citizens of the county, died at his home east of this city last Thursday night of tuberculosis. He had been ill since suffering an attack of grip about a year ago. This left him in a weakened condition and soon afterward tuberculosis developed. The latter part of last summer Mr. Hourigan went to Hendersonville, NC, with the hope that a change of climate would prove beneficial to him. After remaining there about three months he returned home unimproved, since which time his condition gradually grew worse.

Dave Hourigan, as his friends and acquaintances knew him, was an excellent citizen and a most exemplary gentleman. Big of heart and endowed by nature with aspirations that always recognized the best in life, he was ever ready to speak a kind word and render a noble deed. He was devoted to his family.
The funeral services were held at the residence Saturday morning and were conducted by Rev. T. J. Porter, and Rev. R. L. Purdom. The burial was in Ryder cemetery with Masonic honors.
