Mr. R. S. Davis died at his home a few miles south of this city Saturday evening, after a long illness of lung trouble. The funeral services were held at the home Monday morning and the body was shipped to Cleveland O. for burial that afternoon. Mr. Davis has been a sufferer from lung trouble for a number of years, and three years ago, he and his wife came to the Payette valley in hopes the climate would agree with him. Mr. Davis was born in Buffalo N. Y. 89 years ago. In 1902 he was united in marriage to Miss Anna Nason, at Cleveland Ohio; and lived there until three years ago when he moved to the Payette valley.
