Friends and relatives throughout Johnston County will regret to learn of the death of Mr. J.T. Vinson, which occurred at his home in Clayton yesterday afternoon at 1:30 o’clock. Mr. Vinson had suffered several heart attacks, having had a slight one last week. He arose as usual, however, yesterday morning and went to his office. He returned home for breakfast and about 7:30 was taken sick, growing gradually worse until after the noon hour.
The deceased was about 60 years old. He was a brother of the late J.A. Vinson and was the executor on his estate of his brother. Surviving Mr. Vinson are seven children as follows: Messrs. Turner, Herman, Willard and Loomis Vinson of Clayton, Misses Naomi and Claudia Vinson of Clayton and Mrs. Ivan Smith of the Bethesda section. He also leaves three sisters: Mrs. Marceline Cox of Durham, Mrs. H.B. Ipock of Clinton, and Mrs. Rosa Duncan of Clayton.
The funeral will be held this afternoon about 2 o’clock at the home in Clayton after which the body will be taken to the old Vinson burying ground at Wilson’s Mills for interment.
The deceased was a member of the Clayton Baptist church and his pastor, Rev. E.C. White, will conduct the services.
