Hardy, Rev R. B.
\u201cREV. R. B. HARDY DEAD\u201d
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cRev. R. B. Hardy, D. D., for twenty-five years pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church (Colored), died at 2 o\u2019clock this morning at his home on Dice Street. He had been a sufferer from heart trouble for six months and had not been able to fill his pulpit for several weeks past. He was taken ill at 1 o\u2019clock last night and the end came an hour later.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cRoyal Brown Hardy was born near Roanoke, Va., on March 27, 1856, and was, therefore, sixtyone years of age. He taught school for several years in Botetourt, Buchanan and other Virginia counties and later entered Virginia Union University, Richmond, from which he graduated. Upon leaving college he engaged for a brief while in missionary work, coming later to Charlottesville to accept the pastorate of Mt. Zion Church. He served the local congregation faithfully and well and was always foremost in anything tending toward the uplift of members of his race. He was held in high esteem by white and colored. He was president of the Baptist Ministerial Conference and for eighteen years was Moderator of the Shiloh Baptist Association, a position which he surrendered on account of feeble health.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cTwenty-four years ago Rev. Hardy married Sallisco Payne, daughter of Rev. E. Payne, of Richmond. She survives, with three children\u2014two sons and one daughter\u2014George Hardy, of New Jersey, Aubrey and Virginia Hardy, of this city. He also leaves one brother, John W. Hardy, of Chicago.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cThe funeral arrangements have not been completed.\u201d

Harris, Tonie
\u201cFound Dead: Worthy Colored Man, Tonie Harris, Passes Away\u201d
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cTonie Harris, a well known colored man, aged about [50?] years, who resides in Georgetown, two miles west of the city, was found dead in the road near Ivy Creek last night about 10 o\u2019clock. Harris was returning home from Mr. William Garth\u2019s place, where he had been at work and it is thought that he probably burst a blood vessel in his head by overexertion.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cDr. J. H. Browning and Magistrate E. G. Haden viewed the body today but the latter gentleman decided that an inquest was unnecessary. The remains will be interred tomorrow.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cHarris was a highly respected man by both whites and blacks. He was famous in the city and county as a meat cooker and was always in demand at barbecues. He had taken part in many famous ones.\u201d
According to census records, Tony Harris was born around 1845, so he would have been about 57 years old in 1902.
