MR. H. C. TRIGG DIES. Veteran Banker and Fiancieer Passes Away In Florida LEADING AND WEALTHIEST CITIZEN. A telegram received here Monday morning brought the intelligence that Mr. H. C. Trigg had died Sunday night at nine o'clock in Kissimmee City, Florida, where he had gone, as has been his custom for several years, to spend the winter. None of the particulars were given, nor are known, but he had long been in delicate health, both with lung and heart trouble, and, by reason of his advanced age, his death was not a surprise. He was in his seventy-ninth year when cut down by the grim reaper to whom all humanity is a harvest field. For a half century, Mr. Haiden Curd Trigg had been a leading, if not the leading, business citizen of Glasgow. Born and reared here, in his earlier life he embarked in the wholesale hardware business in Louisville, but, after a few years, he returned to the town of his birth, organized the Trigg banking house, and has been prominent in business circles - as he was in social circles - ever since. He amassed the largest fortune ever accumulated in Barren county - estimates of his estate running all he way from $200,000 to half a million dollars. Mr. Trigg came from an old, prominent and distinguished Virginia stock, and the Triggs have always stood among the first of the pioneer families of this section. He was a fine citizen, a man who loved and was beloved, in his family circle, as a husband and father, and his position in the community will be long unfilled. Mr. Trigg is survived by his widow and ten children - the latter being: Messrs. A. L., R. B., and Paul D. Trigg, Mrs. J. W. Kruger and Mrs. T. P. Dickinson, of this place; Mr. Herbert Trigg of Los Angeles, Cala.; Mrs. J. W. Vreeland, of Louisville; Mrs. Morgan Shuster, of New York; Mrs. C. U. McElroy, of Bowling Green, and Dr. Louis Trigg, of Hopkinsville. "The remains will be brought at once to Glasgow, but the date of funeral and interment can not be given until all the absent family are heard from."
