Just as we go to press we are informed of the death of Mr. S.L. Owens, which occurred this morning in the State Hospital Raleigh. He had been in ill health for some time, and his death did not come unexpectedly. The remains will arrive here tonight on the Norfolk-Southern and burial will be conducted tomorrow afternoon in the Methodist cemetery.
Mr. Owens is survived by his wife, three sons, Messrs. Hubert, Herman, and Aubrey; three daughters, Mrs. Ed Ayers of Rocky Mount, Mrs. Eva Brown of this place, and Miss Ethel Owens of Vanceboro.
Prior to his illness, Mr. Owens was a traveling salesman, making Plymouth as his home and headquarters.
Our sympathies are extended to the bereaved ones.
