Fayetteville Observer, January 01, 1891
A SAD DEATH

Some days ago, in the telegraphic columns of the daily papers, was a paragraph to the effect 
that "Z.F. Buckan, of Fayetteville, N.C.," had been found dead in his room, from an over-dose 
of laudanum, in a hotel at Savannah, Ga. At the time we had a premonition of the truth, but 
forebore any comment of the paragraph.

The unfortunate man was B. Frank Buchan, of Jackson Springs, Moore County, N.C., who was well 
known in this city, having driven his father's wagon into town year after year when a lad. He 
was for some time engaged in merchandising at Manly. A more genial, generous, open-hearted man 
never lived, and to his wife and family our sincere sympathy is extended.
