DOSTER Well Known Citizen Died Saturday Afternoon After Short Illness--Survived by Wife and Large Family. Mr. J. Frank Doster, a well known citizen of southwest Monroe township, died at his home at seven-thirty Saturday evening after a week's illness. He had been in more or less bad health for some time, but was about attending to his affairs until a week before he died. On Thursday week he spent the day in Monroe and took dinner with his son, Mr. S. R. Doster, and was feeling especially good. The next morning he got up as usual and began to get about the place, but took sick during the day, and from then on got worse. An abscess on one of his lungs is thought to have been the cause of his death. The remains were buried at Mineral Springs, his grave being the first one in a cemetery laid off there, it being on Mr. Doster's land adjoining the church. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon by Rev. Mr. Abernethy of Monroe and Rev. Mr. Sandford of Waxhaw. The burial was attended by a large concourse of people. The pall bearers were: Messrs. R. W. Lemmond, W. B. Love, J. H. Edwards, R. L. Helms, Peter Taylor and R. D. Crow. The deceased was about seventy years of age and as a boy saw service in the latter days of the war. After the war he started life at the bottom. He was not only a hard working man, but a man of good judgment and great energy. He lived in different localities in the county for a while, but settled forty-three years ago on the place where he died. He gradually extended his possessions until he became a very large land-owner. Soon after the war he married Miss Francis Richardson, who survives him, with nine grown children, eight sons and one daughter. He was always devoted to his family and there was nothing which he had, or which he could do, that he denied them. He took an active part in the affairs of the community. He was a member of Carmel Methodist church and had been for many years. He was a man of good humor and always had a smile and a pleasant word. He was loyal to his friends and a kind and accommodating neighbor. He will be greatly missed. Mr. Doster is survived by one full brother, Mr. R. W. Doster, and two full sisters, Mrs. O. L. Pierce of Sandy Ridge and Mrs. D. W. Harris of Greenville, S. C. All his children were at home at the time of his death. His only daughter, Mrs. Henry Eubanks, lives in Laurinburg. His sons are Messrs. J. E. Doster of Waxhaw, S. R. Doster of Monroe, J. B. Doster, F. C. Doster, T. H. Doster, O. W. Doster of Troy, L. B. Doster and H. G. Doster.
