SUDDEN DEATH- Mr. Roland Chambers, of King's Valley, of this county, died very suddenly on last Thursday. About 2 o'clock p.m., he was standing in the road, about a quarter of a mile from his residence, talking with a gentleman, when he dropped to the ground. He never spoke but once, and was dead before he could be got into the house. Mr. Chambers was an old citizen of this county and highly respected. Heart disease was the probably cause of death.
