Randolph Toiler, Wedowee, Alabama Friday, June 19, 1896
Death of J. L. Traylor
The people of Wedowee were profoundly shocked this (Friday) morning at the 
announcement of the death of Deputy Sheriff J. L. Traylor, which sad event 
occurred a few minutes before 3 o'clock. Mr. Traylor had been ill of a 
malignant type of fever for about three weeks, and for the past few days it 
has been known to Dr. Swann, his attending physician , that his condition was 
critical, yet he entertained hopes of his recovery until last night, when the 
disease culminated in hemorrhage of the bowels, with fatal result.
Mr. Traylor was not only an efficient and faithful officer, bur he was endowed 
with so many noble traits of character that every one was drawn to him in the 
strongest ties of friendship, and his death will be a personal affliction to 
hundreds of people in Randolph County. 
He was in the prime of young manhood, being just past 26 years of age, and 
leaves a young wife and child (a little boy), besides his widowed mother, 
brothers and sisters to mourn his untimely death; and to them especially the 
heartfelt sympathy of the entire community goes out. 
As a mark of the high esteem in which Mr. Traylor was held, the business 
houses in town will remain closed until after the funeral, which will take 
place at the Masonic Cemetery between 2 and 3 o'clock tomorrow.
Mr. Traylor was a member of the Baptist Church and an effort will be made to 
have Rev. W.J. Lovvorn his pastor, present to conduct the funeral services.
