Notes for A
NN STEWART HYNSON:
Ann never used that name as far as I know. For as long as I was privileged to know her she always went by her middle name of Stewart, which is why I called her "Darlin' Stu".
Ann Stewart Hynson PATTIE married John SLAYBAUGH after Lewis PATTIE died. Esther Warren PATTIE was her only child. Her granddaughter, Anne W. BRADSHAW, called her "Darlin' Stu". She died in Doctor's Hospital in Washington, D. C.
Her will was divided between her only surviving brother, Bruce HYNSON and her two grandchildren, Richard K. and Anne W. BRADSHAW.

"Manassas Journal" newspaper, Manassas, Va., dated Nov. 22, 1901:

The pupils of Mrs. J. T. HART, assisted by a few friends, gave an excellent recital in Nicol's hall on Friday evening last. The absence of several who were expected to take part necessarily caused the programme to be shortened, but the performance of the pupils in attendance was very good.
Among the performers were Miss Fanny JOHNSON, whose singing was much enjoyed by all present; Miss Marrie LARRICK, who rendered several delightful instrumental numbers, and Miss Portia MORAN, whose violin solo was well received. Mrs. HART's junior pupils also helped to make the programme a success. Among them were Misses Louise LONGWELL, Virginia IDEN and STEWART HYNSON. The singing by Mrs. HART added greatly to the programme.

TRAGIC END OF PROMINENT MAN

L. Frank PATTIE, Cashier of The National Bank of Manassas, Sends Bullet Into Brain

Mr. L. Frank PATTIE, cashier of The National Bank of Manassas died by his own hand at the home of his father-in-law, Mr. R. S. HYNSON, Sunday night. His death came as a severe shock to his family and friends.
Mr. Pattie was operated on about two years ago for appendicitis and his health has not been of the best since then. Of late he has had trouble in the region of the appendix and had been heard to remark that he did not believe the operation had been altogether succesful. His sufferings, together with the confinement attendant upon the duties of his position, made even more arduous on account of the recent Liberty Loan and War Savings campaigns, broke down his nervous system with the terrible result mentioned above.
On Sunday last, Mr. PATTIE, not feeling even as well as usual, passed practically the whole day in his room, lying down for the most part, and about nine o'clock p.m., he complained to his wife, who was with their little daughter, was with him, that the room was close and he was going out on the porch for air. Donning his dressing gown, he left the room presumably for the porch, but he never reached it. On the way down the hall, he entered Mr. HYNSON's room and took from it's holster a pistol, which was hanging near the bed and sent a bullet into his own brain. The ball entered near the center of the forehead and, passing through the brain, made it's exit at the top and rear of the skull, finally lodging in the wall of the room.
Death was instantaneous. His wife, on hearing the report, went to him, and found him dead, with the gun clutched tightly in his hand, so tightly that her efforts to release it were unavailing. Mr. D. J. ARRINGTON, a neighbor, hearing the sound of the pistol, went immediately to the house, and with some effort disengaged the deadly weapon.
L. Frank Pattie was born at Catharpin, August 19, 1885. He received his education in the public schools and also attended a college at Alliance, Warren County. He came to Manassas in 1904 to enter the service of the National Bank of Manassas. Beginning at the bottom rung of the ladder, by his effiency, his loyalty and his unimpeachable integrity, he was advanced rapidly until he finally held the important position of cashier.
In September, 1910, Mr. PATTIE was married to Miss Ann Stewart HYNSON, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. S. HYNSON of this place, and one child, a four year-old daughter, Esther Warren PATTIE survives the union.
The deceased was a son of Mr. and Mrs. L. B. PATTIE, of Catharpin, and his family name has long been one of prominence in the annals of upper Prince William. Besides his widow and little daughter, he leaves a father, mother, three brothers and one sister who have the heartfelt sympathy of the community in their bereavemant.
Mr. PATTIE was a member of Manasseh Lodge, A. F. & A. M. and also belonged to the Manassas Chapter, Royal Arch Masons.
The funeral services were held from the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, Tuesday afternoon and the body was interred in the cemetery here with Masonic rites. The immense crowd that attended these ceremonies betokened the high esteem in which he was held.
