    Mr. Jas. Miller one of Green Valley's oldest settlers died last Sunday morning and was laid to rest in Champion Hill Cemetery on Monday. Despite the gloomy weather it was one of the largest funerals ever held at Champion Hill; many came from a distance to pay their last respects to one known only for his goodness and uprightness. He leaves a wife and ten children to mourn his loss.
