Uncle Will was born in Tennessee Apr. 5, 1865. On Dec. 15, 1893 he was happily married to Miss Willie HORTON. The writer visited in their home oh so many times and never a cross word was spoken between them. Oh it was so hard for the loves to give him up, he was such a good man. Don’t suppose he had an enemy. Was always ready to do anything on earth to please his loving companion. Oh how she will miss him, but rest assured dear Auntie that some sweet day you will meet him where sad parting comes no more. He was so ready and willing to go, we know he is in heaven.
