LUTHER FRANK ATKINSON
        Following an illness of several months due to advanced age, Luther
Frank Atkinson, 89, died at his home in Arch street here Thursday afternoon
at 1:20 o'clock.  He had been critically ill for several days, and the end
was not unexpected.
        Mr Atkinson, an employee of the Ruby Lumber Company for a number of
years, retired about three years ago.  He was a native of Xenia, Ohio, from
which place he moved to Hopkinsville.  About twenty years ago he came to
Madisonville to live.
        He was a devout member of the First Christian church, Madisonville,
and a popular member of the Elks lodge.  His widow, two daughters, Mrs. G L
Martin, Madisonville, and Mrs. Ferdinand Walker, Bowling Green, and a son,
Vivian Atkinson, survive.
        Funeral services will be held at the residence at 1 o'clock Friday
afternoon, conducted by the Rev. W H Funderburk, followed by burial in
Hopkinsville cemetery.
