FRANKLIN HAMILTON
  
DEATH CLAIMS KEATON MAN
  
Father of Paintsville Man Died Tuesday, April 21, 1936
  
Keaton, Ky., This community was shocked because of the death of
Franklin Hamilton, which occurred at his home here Tuesday April
21, 1936.  Mr. Hamilton had been in poor health for sometime.
  
Mr. Hamilton was not only one of the best citizens of the Keaton
section, but one of the best citizens of the entire county.   He
had lived a devoted Christian life for many years and his passing
brings grief, not alone to his own immediate family, but to many
friends who knew him best.
  
Several children including Orville Hamilton, principal of the
Paintsville city schools, survive him.  His wife preceded him in
death several years ago.
  
Rev. Phillip Skaggs and Rev. Tommy Bailey were in charge of the
funeral services, which were held at the home.
  
Burial in the family cemetery near the home.
  
A large number of relatives and friends attended the funeral and
burial.
