Catherine, I had no idea you were on this list-------good hearing from you. Drew Advance Sep. 25, 1894: Died on the 16th at the home of Mr. Luke Owens, Wiley House, son of Mr. Jno. D. House. He had received a severe injury last spring and had been in feeble health ever since, and at the time of his death was visiting relatives, in the hope of receiving some benefit from the change, but alas! the grim messenger came and carried away one of the purest and best of our young men. We remember Wiley as one of our erstwhile pupils--obedient, noble and manly, and had predicted for him a career of usefulness and honor. Though always weakly, there was the spark of genius in the boy that gave promise of noble, useful, manhool. We deplore his untimely end, and offer our heartfelt sympathies to the bereaved family. Peace to his ashes. October 23, 1894: Died after a painful ad protracted illness, at the residence of Mr. Z.T. Wood, in our city on Wednesday, at 2 o'clock, Mr. W.F. Stanley, in the 81st year of his age. Uncle Fount as he was familiarly known was one of the old land marks of Drew Co., having moved here in its early settlement. For many months he had been afflicted with that most painful and troublesome of all ailments "Prostatitis" from which he has been a constant sufferer, and death therefore at his advanced stage of life must have come to him as a relief. He leaves an aged widow, several children and many grandchildren to mourn his departure, and sadly will they miss his fatherly advice and counsel. He was buried with Masonic honors in the new Cemetery attended by a numerous concourse of relatives and friends.
