(15)(21) Mary's obituary reads: Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Kincade, aged 84, lifetime resident of Pocahontas, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Earl Dawson, March 15. She was born March 18, 1863, a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sutton. Her husband, John Kincade, preceded her in death several years ago. She was a member of the Free Will Baptist Church. Funeral services were conducted at Sutton church Sunday at 2:30 p.m., by the Revs. Ralph Staten and W. Harry Hunt. She is survived by four sons, Geo., Ed, Luke and Fred Kincade; her daughter and 37 grandchildren. Grandma Kincade never turned anyone away from her door. She also never closed her front door. She kept oil cloth half way down the screen door to catch the breeze. Her house had 52 layers where it was papered with newspapers, even the ceiling. In the late 1920's and 30's during the spring months and during the hot weather, babies would catch colitis very easily. Doctors couldn't cure colitis. Mary discovered that she could take wood ditney (found near hickory), strip the leaves off and make a tea. When given to the sick babies, it would likely save them. She sent Hershel Kincade and Waive Todd for roots. She would hang them in the smokehouse and let them dry, then strip and boil them. She saved Tom Kincade, Ed and Myrl's son. She liked to sit by the fire place and chew tobacco. She never owned a home until after Grandpa Kincade died. Then she bought the old Sutton Home or it was deeded to her. When Mary Kincade turned 60 she "gave up housekeeping", sold her house to Ed Kincade, and started living about three months at a time with her grown children. She kept her feather bed and brought it with her each time she changed homes. John R. A. Kincade and Mary Elizabeth Sutton had the following children: +125 i.

(15) He died on 23 Jul 1926 in Pocahontas, Randolph Co, AR.(21) James "Perry" Kincade's death was a tragedy for his family and the community. An article from the Pocahontas Star Herald was entitled Telephone Lineman Electrocuted Here. Perry Kincade, aged 45, lineman for the Ozark Telephone Co. here, was killed last Friday morning when he came in contact with a high tension wire, carrying 22,000 volts, on the Arkansas-Missouri Power Company's line a half mile east of Pocahontas. His helper, Floyd Gibson, who is also his son-in-law, was the only eye witness to the tragedy and gives the following account of it: "Mr. Kincade had climbed a telephone pole to cut a wire while "cutting in" a phone for a farmer living near th river. He was about 18 inches from the power line, leaning out to cut the phone wire, when apparently the current leaped from the power line to his body. Mr. Kincade was immediately enveloped in a blue blaze which flamed up several feet above his head and which was so intense that I could not see his form at all. He remained suspended for a moment then slowly fell backward until only his spikes held him to the pole. After hanging head downward for a moment, he fell to the ground." Mr. Gibson rushed to the stricken man and tore away his shirt which was still alive, and hailed Lester Childs, who was passing in his auto. They brought Mr. Kincade to town but were unable to locate a physician for some time. After he was placed under a doctor's care, it was found that he had been burned from his feet to his hat, the skin over all his body being burned loose from the flesh. The accident occured about 9 o'clock in the morning and death resulted at 1:30 in the afternoon. The injured man was never conscious after the accident.
