MR. WILLIAM A. HILL

Mr.. William A. Hill died at his
residence in Nance street on Sunday
night after an illness Of about five
weeks.

Mrs. ]. NJ. Kelley of Rhine, Ca, and
Mrs. R. C. Wallace of Williamson.

tile business at Chappells and Old

til he moved to Newberry IN 1899

mess.
He was also active in political af-
fairs and served as supervisor of the

cause he believed to be right. Yor
never had any trouble in knowing
where he stood on any public ques
ton. He possibly made some enc
mics as is always the case where
