Lineville Headlight
Mr. W. E. Sanders, one of the oldest citizens of this section, died at his home 
one mile east of town on Monday, August 10th, and his remains were interred in 
the Lineville cemetery with Masonic honors Tuesday morning. He was born in 
Tolbert County, Georgia, October 5, 1822, and at the time of his death was 85 
years, 10 months and 5 days old. He had lived in this community about forty years 
and was highly respected by his neighbors and all who knew him. Two or three days 
before his death, realizing that the end was near, he signified a desire to unite 
with the Baptist church here by letter and although unable to be present he was 
received into the church. He lived to a ripe old age and in his death the 
community lost one of its honored, pioneer citizens.
