Crawford County (IN) Democrat, January 21, 1900. IN MEMORY Death has again visited our neighborhood and taken from us one of its most precious jewels in the person of Thomas L. Sherrill who departed this life December 31st, 1899, aged 17 years. He leaves father, mother, two brothers, six sisters and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his sad departure. He was the pride of the home and loved by all who knew him. He was the obedient son and a loving brother and kind to all. His remains were laid to rest in the Beech Wood Cemetery, New Years Day. Tis hard to break the tender cord when love had bound the heart; Tis hard, so hard to speak the words, "We must forever part." Agatha Sherrill
