September 2, 1910 > DEATH OF HENRY ENGLISH - Death robbed the home and loved ones of a faithful and devoted son and brother, and the state and county of one of its best young citizens, when the spirit of Henry S. English winged its flight at his old home near Englishville, early Sunday morning. He had passed through a long period of suffering and on doubt, was entirely ready and willing to go. > His death marks the passing of one of the most robust young men who ever went out from Macon County into the busy world. He was a picture of health and went west to win fame and fortune, and was going up rapidly, being one of the most prominent officers of a large irrigation corporation in Oregon, when he contracted the dread disease. Realizing that his strength was slowly but surely ebbing away, he came back to the old home a year ago and at last sank, weary and suffering, into the sheltering arms of his Maker. He was a son of the late lamented Thomas H. English and and his wife, Eliza Virginia [Higgins] English and was unmarried. He left a mother and several brothers and sisters, and a large circle of friends. His remains were interred Sunday afternoon in the old family cemetery near his home. > [Note:Henry S.
