With members of the Masonic lodges of the city in charge of the burial, the remains of Rev. G.D. Langston, who died Friday afternoon at 2 o’clock at his home in West Durham, were laid to rest in Maplewood cemetery Saturday afternoon. Rev. J.M. Bradley, pastor of the West Durham Methodist church, conducted the services held in the Methodist church.
Mr. Langston was one of the city’s most highly respected citizens. He was nearly 77 years of age. His illness extended over several years with the past eight months finding him perfectly helpless. He was for many years an active minister of the gospel of the Methodist denomination.
