The Cleburne New Era

NEWSPAPER NOTICES FROM "THE CLEBURNE NEW ERA" for OCTOBER 1905

NEWSPAPER Issue of October 7, 1905

ELKANAH HAYWOOD

The following minutes were adopted by the Oxford District Conference of 
Congressional Churches at its recent meeting on Sept 16th:

Our brother, Elkanah Haywood, who has recently departed this life at the 
advanced age of about eighty years, joined the Methodist church in early life 
but united with the Congregational church in the early days of the union, and 
remained till his death a constant member of the same, loyal to its interest 
and ever ready to contribute to its support. His home was a preachers home. As 
a father, he was kind, as a husband loving, as a citizen loyal, and as a 
church member he will be greatly missed. Therefore be it resolved, that we 
extend as a Confederacy our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved wife and 
children and that a copy of these minutes and resolutions be furnished to the 
family and to local papers for publication. G.W. Vaughan, E.J. Loveless, W.A. 
Kaheley, Committee
