B.S. Winstead Died Aug. 4, 1925, in Doctor's Office

Mr. Winstead Died Suddenly

Mr. B.S. Winstead, who lived near Leasburg, died suddenly yesterday morning in the office of Dr. A.F. Nichols. Mr. Winstead was taken sick Monday night about 2 o’clock and came in to see his physician. Soon after reaching the Doctor’s office he complained of feeling very bad and the doctor told him to lay down. In a few moments he was dead, death resulting from acute indigestion. His death was very sad, doubly so for the fact that his wife was in a hospital for treatment.

Mr. Winstead was very popular with his neighbors and will be greatly missed in his community.
