    Mr. Wyley Howard died at his home near Crewsville last Sunday 
evening and was buried in the Shiloh cemetery Monday afternoon, at the

daughters, Mrs. Mattie Rogers and Mrs. Mollie Corley, all of whom reside 
in Coosa county, one granddaughter, Miss Amanda McDiarmid who lives in 
Lumberton, N. C., two brothers, James and Newt Howard, who live near
