Rev. J. K. Armstrong, a Methodist Minister, formerly of this place, died of yellow fever at Grenada recently. At last reports two of his children, and Miss Bettie Locket, a young lady living in his family, were prostrated by the disease. He had moved from Decatur to Grenada only a short time before the fever broke out there.
