Obituary..

William Leo Orosswell, only

Viola Crosswell, was born in
Lexington, Tenn, and died in
jackson, Tenn, on Friday, June
9th, 1912, at the age Of 10
months and four days. Little
Leo was the only child, but one
that ever came to bless the union
of Mr.. and Mrs. Crosswell. Nine
years ago they lost the first and
then only child, q boy, and hence
in the life Of this little one they
naturally INDUCED high hopes.
To the fond parents little Leo
was the greatest boy in the world,
none other like him." as the
father more than once said to the
writer, and so enwrapt were they

these friends, hopes that to them
may come the voice of their God
