Mr. Irving Thrower Taylor of the Spring Green section of the county passed away at his home Friday evening after a lingering illness which lasted nearly nine months.
Last February Mr. Taylor was found by specialists to have cancer of the throat and they believed for a while that they could cure him of the troubles, but they failed and for some time he grew worse at a rapid rate until death came.
The deceased was 34 years of age and was unusually strong and hale until he was afflicted with the dreadful disease, cancer. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Fernando Taylor of Spring Green. He married Miss Bettie Everett of Robersonville. She survived him but their two infant children preceded him to the grave. He also leaves his father, and several brothers and sisters.
Mr. Taylor was a very likeable young man and a prosperous farmer. The burial took place Saturday afternoon in the new cemetery of Robersonville with Rev. J.G. Ulmer of the Christian Church officiating.
