T. F. LLOYD. OF ORANGE COUNTY DIED LAST WEEKAt his home in Chapel Hill Captain Thomas F. Lloyd, known as the wealthiest, citizen of Orange county, died Wednesday afternoon at 5 o’clock, after a lingering illness of more than two months from dropsy. Captain Lloyd was aged 70 years.Simple and plain, but honest, tells of a character that was loved by every man and woman not only in Chapel Hill, but throughout the county in which he resided. With but little schooling and less cash, Captain Lloyd laid the foundation for his fortune years ago by square dealing and zealous labor. Loyalty was the keynote of his success, and noman, poor or rich, ever knew the captain to be unloyal in any business or personal matter.-.He is survived by his wife and five brothers—Henry of Chapel Hill; Albert, Morris, Jack and Pink, of Orange county. His only child, Green Lloyd, widelyknown and unusually 'popular with the students: at the university, died in November, 1907, and' the death of his son cast a gloom over tht captain which he wasunable to withstand.The funeral services were held■ t •this afternoon at 3 o’clock at Bethel church, near Chapel Hill, and were largely attended, many citizens going from Durham. Captain Lloyd for years was a Mason, and was laid to rest with Masonic honors. The interment was made in the cemetery near the church.—Durham Sun, 25th.
