Since our last letter, sickness
and death have entered our COM
munity and claimed as its victim
one of our oldest and respected
citizens, Mr.. Till Corum. Uncle
Till, as he was called was born in
Sumner county, where he lived only
few years before moving to Union
City, at which place he lived until
his death. His life was an honor
able one-a heightened gentleman
and esteemed by all who knew
him. Though not a member OF any
.church, his life was full of kind
deeds to those about him and he was
never known to do any great wrong
in his long life of four score years
and eleven. "Honest and upright"
was his motto, which he followed
the best he knew how. Twenty
seven years ago, last November,
his loving wife was called from this
world of sorrow to that shining
world above, leaving him the cares
of life to battle alone with his chill
dren, Two years ago he lost his
eyesight and was blind until death
relieved him of his affection. The
last hours of this old man were quiet
and peaceful, and on last Sunday
night, May 81, at go O'Clock, IN his
ninety-6rst year, he answered his
summons over the River of Death,
where sickness and sorrow never
come to seek a more quiet and
peaceful house. The funeral service
was conducted at the residence by
Rev. ]. H. Thomas, of Waverly, and
his remains were laid to rest Mon
day afternoon at o'clock at Beu-
lah cemetery by the side of his wife.
He leaves four children to mourn
his loss and to them we extend our
heartfelt sympathy.
