The supposed cause was heart failure. Mr. Henderson was a local tobacco buyer and will be remembered by a great number of the population of the county, as he bought tobacco in the barn from hundreds of people all over the county. He came into town Saturday morning apparently well. He went to the dpot an was looking at tobacco that had been brought in teases, which was his custom to do. The parties desiring to sell would knock out the head, strip the tobacco and he would make them a price. This he was doing at the time of his death. Without warning he fell back and brethed his last without speaking a word. This created quite an excitement and the crowd gathered rapidly. Dr. Roberts was called at once, but nothing could be done. He was placed on a cot and taken to his home near the County Home. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Baxter Guthrie at the Henderson Home. He was buried at Henderson graveyard Monday morning. A good size crowd was present. Mr. Henderson was about 61 years old and one of the leading men of the County. He was superintendent of the County Home for a number of years. But the best thing to be said of him, that he was a Christian, having belonged to the Free Will Baptist Church for a number of years. Surviving him is his widow, four sons, Reigan and Mack of Washington, D.C., and Clemet and Clarence of Marshall. One daughter, Mrs. Claude Rector of Asheville.
