Haigler died at the home of his son, Mr. T. C. Haigler, in Monroe about six o'clock Tuesday morning. He had been sick since January with a complication of diseases following flu and had been brought to the home of his son in order that he might be nearer medical attention. The funeral was held Wednesday and the remains were buried at Zion Methodist church, of which the deceased was a member. Mr. Haigler was reared near Zion church and the ground on which it stands was given by his grandfather for church purposes. Rev. J. W. Strider, the pastor, and Rev. T. J. Huggins, the former pastor, and Rev. B. B. Shankle, conducted the service. A large congregation attended the funeral, and completely filled the church. After the white people had retired a number of colored people who attended went in. The deceased is survived by his wife and seven children. Mrs. Haigler has been sick since January and has had a severe case of pneumonia. The children are Mrs. J. E. Broom, Miss Eunice Haigler, and Messrs. T. C. Haigler and S. E. Haigler of Monroe, and O. B. Haigler, S. D. Haigler, and G. B. Haigler of Goose Creek. Mr. Haigler was a splendid Confederate soldier, and was a member of Co. 1, 48th Regiment, one of the renowned regiments of the army. He was only twenty years old when the war closed, having been born June 16, 1845. Immediately after coming home from the war he was married, his wife who survives him, being Miss Mary Ellen Clontz. Like the other boys who survived the bloody war, he came home to begin the long and laborous battle of life under adverse circumstances. He lived long in the community. He lived all his life near the spot where he was born and for sixty years had lived at the same homestead. Mr. Haigler was noted for his honest in all things, for his pleasant disposition and for his hospitality. Relatives, friend and strangers all found welcome in his home. He was well read and had a mind well stored with information. There is no better index to a man's character than what his neighbors say of him. Mr. M. C. Long, who knew Mr. Haigler since his young manhood, and was his neighbor for a long time, said to the Journal: "There was never a better neighbor than John E. Haigler."
