Pioneer John Buchanan Dies in Centralia After Illness
John Buchanan, a longtime Centralia resident born in Henderson County Illinois, died Sunday from stomach cancer after a two year battle. He helped run a half way house, a grist mill, and later a general merchandise business on Tower Avenue before relocating to Centralia twenty four years ago. He married three times and leaves adopted children, siblings, and a surviving third wife Elizabeth Canby. Other local notices recall the death of Ivan Swarthheart’s daughter and the funeral of Ruma S. Edean, with fire department wreaths and community attendance, along with mentions of Prank Burch and Willard Wells’ services and family tributes.

Fragmentary text suggests a note about buying coffee at ten cents per pound with a long RR freight distance from a roaster. The garbled message mentions a grocer and a “btling’s Beats” and a payment, but details and context are unclear. The piece reads like a misread advertisement or scrambled notice with no clear event or outcome.
