Read More	Christian Standard, August 7, 1886 COMBS Died, in Fayetteville, Ark., July 13, 1886 Bro Levi Combs, aged 90 years, 4 months and 4 days. Truth is said to be stranger than fiction, and how often this is exemplified in the history of both men and things. The subject of this sketch was born during the administration of Gen. Washington, and thus lived under the administration of the Federal Government from its foundation. How strange it must seem to those who knew the deceased so long and intimately to think that only a few days ago they took by the hand, looked into the living face and felt the pulse beat of one who came down from the remote past. He was born near Salisbury, North Carolina, March 9, 1796; came to Fayetteville in 1833, when Arkansas was only a Territory, and resided in this county 53 years. He survived all his immediate family except one daughter, and for the past eleven years he made his home in the family of the amiable Dr. R. Putman, one of the elders of the church in this city. Here he was treated as a father while he lived, and laid to his final rest as a father when he died. He was converted when a young man, in his native state, and after coming West united with the Christian Church, and for many years, exercised his gifts in exhortation and in preaching the word. However, for a long time he was denied the privilege of the public worship in consequence of natural decay. He had generally been a healthy man, and his death was the result of old age; he gradually grew weaker and weaker until the heart that had beat through ninety years finally stood still and the aged patriarch, way worn and fatigued, slept like a little child on its mother's bosom. --N. M Ragland, Fayetteville, Ark, July 22 Submitted by Linda Berney
