John Calvin Ferguson died at 8:30 this morning at his home near here. Mr. Ferguson had not been well for four or five months, but had never been confined to his bed. He had a sudden heart attack Friday at 5 p.m. from which he never rallied.
Mr. Ferguson was 67 years of age, a lifelong citizen of Cabarrus county, having lived at his paternal great grandparents’ old home place for the past 35 years.
He is survived by his wife and six children: John and James Ferguson of Watauga, Okla.; Mrs. Chas. Crowell of Mt. Pleasant, J.H. of Concord, and Misses Ethra and Bertha Ferguson at home. Also, three sisters survive, Mrs. Geo. H. Price of Concord, Mrs. J.D. Sossamon of Kannapolis and Miss Anne Ferguson of Statesville. All of the family were at his bedside with the exception of the two sons in Oklahoma.
The funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon at 3 o’clock.
