Obituary:

We greatly regret to learn of the death of Mr. John B. Campbell, who died at the residence of Mr. G. W. Phelps, in Red Land, on last Friday, aged 72 years and 3 days. Mr. Campbell was an old citizen of Bossier parish -- a strong man; honest, sincere and popular. The parish suffers in his death the loss of a man of fine character and standing powers, a useful man in every respect. A good citizen; a Christian gentleman and a gallant Confederate soldier has been called to give the countersign at the gates of Heaven.
