The remains of B.F. Slavin who died in Boyle county near Danville the latter part of last week were interred in the Lancaster Cemetery Friday afternoon. Mr. Slavin resided in Garrard county for many years removing to Boyle county several years ago. He was a good substantial citizen who enjoyed the respect of all who knew him. He was a member of the Lick Presbyterian church since boyhood and one of its most enthusiastic supporters. He is survived by wife and five children, Mrs. N.B. Jones, Mr. E.K. Slavin and Dr. F.L. Slavin of Boyle county, and Messrs. T.R. and J.W. Slavin of Texas. Many Garrard county friends extend deep sympathy to the family. The active pallbearers were Messrs. A.D. Leavel, J.A. Doty, W.S. Walker, and Isaac Arnold of Lancaster, G.T. Higginbotham of Marcellus, and G.P. Pope of Boyle county, and the honorary pall bearers were Messrs. James Denny, D.G. Fox, J.T. Saudidge, and John Conn.
