MAJOR WILLIAM GENTRY

A good man mas IaIen, anu ihe
places that have known him will
know him no more forever.
A busy life has ended.
A warm, personal and business
friendship had existed between the
deceased and the writer for about a
quarter of century, and while we
know and appreciate his virtues, his
many most excellent qualities OF
head and heart, still it is difficult
task to write a tribute, such as his
memory deserves.
William Gentry was marvellous
self made man. He came to Petit:
County with an axe on bis shoulder
to hew his way to fortune and fame
How well he succeeded, sill of Pefti'
County is cognizant. At his death
he possessed about 1000 acres of land
large herds of fine horses, cattle
mules. hogs and sheep. He was
large stakeholder in the First Ma
tionaI Bank of this city and had beer
q director in the bank from its organ
ization, 1866.
The major was conservative mar
on all questions that affected the pub
lie. He was a man of great viii
power, had great success in controlling
men who were excited to frenzy, al.
most to the verge of temporary insan
ity.
He was peacemaker. His rare
qualities for patching up q truce be
tween enemies often called him into
action. He was invariably successful
and bloodshed or lasting feuds per
manently ayerted.
His nature was a rugged one. Hi
impulses were those of the true and
lust. Tender hearted, his bes
qualities were easily touched, anC
want and penury and grief found
ready sympsthizer in the subject Of
this notice. Heaven bullded up within
him a fair and shapely temple. L
such a thing were possible, he added
to it daily. The flowers of amiability
sociabIeness and benevoience tina
blossomed IN his heart, perfumed
his life to the portals of the grave

hood in a frontier country, where the
