Event details: Isham FRITTS. His Death Occurs Yesterday at the Home of His Son. Isham FRITTS, aged 73, father of Henry W., B.F. and Willie FRITTS and Mrs. T.A. ROBERTS, died yesterday morning at the residence of Henry W. FRITTS, No. 243 Harrison avenue, of a complication of diseases arising from dropsy. The deceased had been quite ill for several weeks and his life had been despaired of for days. Mr. FRITTS was taken ill in Kingston several months ago. It is thought two weeks ago that his death would be but a matter of a few hours, and his family was summoned to his bedside. However, he rallied, and his sons had him brought to this city, so that he could receive the best of medical attention. For several days after his arrival in the city he began to sink rapidly, and to all it was evident that the end was near at hand. The deceased had lived in East Tennessee for many years and was exceptionally well known. The funeral services will be held this afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence of Henry W. FRITTS, Revs. W.D HAYMORE and J.P. McFERRIN officiating. The interment will be made in Forest Hills cemetery. The pallbearer will be F.M. GARDENHIRE, E. M. DODSON, C.S. PEAK, W.R. PHILLIPS, John H. PEEBLES and A.K. TRIGG
