  Notes	"Aurelius Preston Roller was buried yesterday afternoon in Lincoln Cemetery after impressive services in East State street African Methodist Episcopal church at. 3 o'clock. For many years he was an active member of that congregation and was also an officer. As a vocalist in the Amphion male choir and the Amphion Quartette he had become popular. Rev. Dr. Israel Derrick officiated and addresses were made by Rev. Mr. Hood, Rev. W. H. Marshall, pastor of Harris Zion church, and by Rev. Moses B. Puryear. The church was crowded, and many floral tributes of all descriptions were sent to the church by the best of friends of the deceased. Mr. Roller was born at Front Royal, Va., and came to this city with his parents when a boy. He served as janitor in many of the public buildings, and at the time of his death was employed at the State capitol. He is survived by a widow, who lives at the home, 139 Balm street, a mother and two sisters, Mrs. Katie White and Mrs. Sarah Payne."
