Mr. Will A. Byrd who has been ill for about a month died Friday night at his

He was taken ill about a month ago with typhoid fever.  He was the baggage

upright and manly character.  He was a strict member of the Methodist church.  
He married Miss Emma Hurt daughter of Rev. C. S. Hurt, of the Crawford Ala.
