Notes for ROBERT L. LANDERS:
From Carroll Hayden:

"UNCLE BOB" LANDERS CALLED BY DEATH

Died at the Home of His Daughter Monday Morning

News of the death of R.L. "Uncle Bob" Landers will be received with sorrow and regret by practically every person in the county and many people in other counties.

Mr. Landers was taken with lagrippe some ten days ago which developed into pneumonia the latter part of last week since which time his condition grew rapidly worse despite an chorus of physicians and friends to stay the withering hand of death and a short time after 12 o'clock Sunday night the summons came and "Uncle Bob" died as he had lived-with a welcome smile upon his face.

Mr. Landers was born in Bedford County, Tennessee, November 17, 1842 and at the age of nine years moved with his parents to Izard county. Three years after coming to Izard county his father died and in 1885 his mother also was called to the other world. In 1862 Mr. Landers enlisted as a private in Company E., Forty-seventh Arkansas Infantry under Capt. Gibson and served west of the Mississippi River until 1864.

In 1869 Mr. Landers was elected sheriff of the county and was again elected in 1886 and served in that capacity until about 1894. In 1863 Mr. Landers was married to Miss Sarah E. Shannon and to this union eight children were born, four of whom survive him, viz: Mrs. Mollie Felts, of Heber Springs, Mrs. Tennie Medley, Rowland and Clarence Landers of this place. Deceased is also survived by one brother and two sisters, Mrs. Nannie Rose, Mrs. Mary T. Driskill and G.R. Landers, Sr., all of whom reside in this vicinity.

At the time of his death Mr. Landers was serving about his fourth term as justice of the peace of this township, a position to which the people have unsolicited elected him. Mr. Landers was a member of the Missionary Baptist church and was a faithful worker for the cause. His regular appearance at Sunday school for the past 30 years or more, combined with his ever ready assistance in administering to the needs of those in distress; his even temper at all times and under all circumstances, his ever pleasant smile and greeting marked him as one of the best men that has ever breathed the breath of life during modern times. He was known to almost everyone in the county and his memory will be cherished by many and respected by all.

For many years Mr. Landers had been a member of both the Masonic and Odd Fellow fraternities and he dearly loved both orders and adhered strictly to their teachings and followed the funeral service held at the Baptist church by his life-long friend Eld. W.M. Duren, the body was laid to rest beside that of his beloved wife who preceded by almost three years, Tuesday noon, with both Masonic and Odd Fellow honors.
