The following is an abstract of a newspaper obituary found in the Bible:

disease suddenly, the end coming without warning and without a struggle.  Mr. 
Fields was a man of deeds and not words "..

The funeral services at the grave were conducted by Elder John Gardner of 
Goldsboro.  He leaves a widow and six children: Mesdames R. M. Harper, 
Will Gray, Arthur Ross, Miss Lela and Messrs. Julian and Roland Fields.  
The internment was in Fairview Cemetery Monday afternoon in the presence 
of a large assemblage.
