Henry P. Davis died at his home in this city last Sunday afternoon from
a complication of diseases, his fatal illness being brought on from
exposure and getting wet while attending the funeral of Capt. Walton
Smith two weeks ago. While all knew he was very low, the news of his
death was a great shock to our citizens. He was buried Monday evening
with Masonic rites, Rev. W. H. Carr assisting, in the presence of an
immense concourse of friends and neighbors, who came to pay their last
tribute of respect to the honored dead. Henry P. Davis was born in
September, 1844, in what is now the First district of Putnam county, but
was then a part of White county. When the Civil war broke out, although
only a boy, he enlisted in Capt. Shaw's Co. 25th Tennessee Infantry,
serving his full term of twelve months, and re-enlisted in Dibrell's
cavalry, with which command he served until the end of the war,
participating in many battles and campaigns, and making a fine
reputation as a soldier. He mustered out at Washington, Ga., in May,
1865. After the war he returned home and worked for some time at the oil
wells on Spring Creek, earning money with which he paid his way through
Cumberland Institute, a school then flourishing in White county. In 1870
he was elected county court clerk of Putnam county, serving efficiently
for eight years. He was a member of the legislature in 1881-2, retiring
with added honors. Early in life he professed religion and joined the
Cumberland Presbyterian church, since which time he had been an active
member, and one who enjoyed a happy christian experience. He was an
elder in the church at the time of his death. In the 70's he married
Lydia Solomon, who survives him, as do also three daughters, Mesdames.
R. P. Morgan and Whitley Hyder, and Miss Maggie; and six sons, O. M.,
Lem H., Roscoe, Edgar, Will and Newton. All were at his bedside but two,
Lem and Edgar. He also leaves two sisters, Mesdames. Wm. Huddleston and
Leroy Carr of this county, and three brothers Stephen D. and J. Richey
of Texas, and John, who resides near Cookeville, as well as many other
relatives, the family being large and influential. Henry P. Davis was
one of the most widely known and best loved citizens of this section,
and his death causes a loss that can never be filled. He was a model
citizen, loyal friend and neighbor, a loving husband and indulgent
father. The Herald unites with the entire community in extending
heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved ones. [Date 3/25/1903, Vol.
