Notes for Alonzo Huston Vinson:

OBITUARY - Lonnie Vinson Dead.

A deep gloom settled over the city last night when it was learned that the Dark Angel of Death had entered the home of J. L. Vinson and taken from it the eldest son, J. Alonzo.

Lonnie, as he was familiarly called has been ill for several months with typhoid fever, and took a relapse two weeks ago since which time his death has been daily expected. Everything known to medical science was done to save him, but in vain. Death came Thursday evening, Oct. 16, 1902. He was the eldest son and was 21 years and 26 days old. Lonnie was a general favorite with everyone, and it will require no sculptured monument to remind his friends and schoolmates that he has lived among us, that he was a true friend, noble and generous, possessing all those qualities that go to make a noble man.

The funeral took place from the Christian Church at 3:30 this afternoon, and remains were followed to their last resting place by a large concourse of people. The family have the sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement.
