OBITUARY
On last Friday WILLIAM M. YOUNG, son of Mr. and Mrs. JOHN A. YOUNG, died at his 
father’s home nine miles west of town, at the age of twenty-three years.  He 
was a young man of splendid business qualifications and with bright prospects 
in life, which were cut short by consumption.  He had for several years spent 
the winter in Columbus, Mississippi, where he had the friendship and confidence 
of many of the most prominent business men.  In the winter of 1887 he began to 
fear the disease was fastening upon him and went to Florida, there to find that 
the climate seemed to aggravate instead of cure the disease, and with a sad 
heart returned to his home to die with those he loved.  Long did the hopes 
inspired by his youth and prospect in life cause him to hold on to life, when 
his friends, who have felt many heartaches at his untimely death.  A large 
number of friends gathered at the family burying place on last Saturday to see 
that which was mortal of him laid to rest.
