A most unusual funeral was held at Centennial Methodist church, about eight miles east of here, today at noon when Preston Goforth and his wife were both buried in the same grave. One funeral service answered for both. Mr. Goforth died Tuesday morning while his wife died Monday afternoon. Both had been sick for some time. Mr. Goforth was 77 years of age while his wife was 80 years old. They leave three children, Robert and Daily Goforth, at home, and one daughter, Mrs. W. L. Long, who lives in the community. They leave nine grandchildren. Mr. Goforth leaves two sisters and three brothers, while Mrs. Goforth is the last one of her family. It was their desire that they both die at the same time. Mrs. Goforth has often prayed for that, while Mr. Goforth remarked some months ago that he felt like they would die the same day. Mrs. Goforth wanted to die last. The parents of Mr. Goforth, Mr. and Mi-s. Clemens Goforth died 16 years ago within five days of each other while the parents of Mrs. Goforth, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Poteet, died about 1863, within six days of each other. One of the largest crowds in the history of the Westminster section attended the funeral. Revs. J. B. Tabor and W. R. Ware were in charge of the funeral services.
