SPRADLEY, O. B.
THE LAUDERDALE COUNTY ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY MARCH 4, 1932
LOCALS–The people of Ripley deeply sympathize with Mrs. W. E. HARLAN in the death of her father, Mr. O. B. SPRADLEY, which occurred in the Baptist Hospital, Memphis Thursday night of last week. Mr. SPRADLEY, who was 62 years of age and a pioneer citizen of Blytheville, Ark., was fatally injured by an automobile in Memphis on Washington’s birthday, when the signal lights changed as he was crossing the street at Main and Beale, and in trying to avoid an accident, stepped in front of a car. The remains were laid to rest in Blytheville Saturday morning.
