Hi All, Also in the interest of sharing, I have decided to try contributing Obits/death notices from this newspaper. (Mark has inspired me.) I have chosen 1916 as a starting year, and will pick up earlier issues as they come available. These are transcribed exactly as written. Due to the sometimes poor condition of the microfilm, asterisks (*) will be substituted for unreadable letters. Hope these help someone! Nora ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Gleaner - Jan 20, 1916 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr. W. G. Bradshaw of High Point Dead. On last Saturday evening, about 8 o'clock, Dr. William G.
