Obituary
PEACHAM
Tuesday our town suffered an irreparable loss by the death of John C. Blanchard who died of typhoid pneumonia after only six days’ illness. His age was about 55, and he leaves a wife and ten children. Mr. Blanchard was a man of far more than ordinary mental capacity. He served in the war of the Rebellion.
