Algie (Algernon) Fears


	Died, at his residence in Van Zandt County, Texas, October 16, 1900, 
Mr. Algie (Algernon) Fears.
	Mr. Fears had been sick with malarial fever ten weeks.  He was born in 
Troup County, Ga., August 28, 1835, and lived the most of his life in Chambers 
County, Ala., near West Point, Ga.  He was an affectionate husband and father, 
a kind neighbor, and a good and useful citizen.
	He proved a brave soldier when battling for his Southland, and when he 
returned home, at the close of the war, to gather up the remnants of his 
property, no man went to work with more courage to restore to his family the 
comforts they had lost.
	He was always zealous in doing good, helping to lift burdens that were 
too heavy, and ministering in every way to the unfortunate around him.
	The death of this good man is deplored by all, but through our blinding 
tears we try to be consoled, for his end was peace.
