The New Enterprise Sept. 12, 1901
   Mr. L. A. M. Thomas, who departed this life on Wednesday, September 4, 1901,
aged 78 years, was a native of Thomas, Georgia. He came to Madison county,
Florida, early in life. In 1851 he married Miss Amanda Whitlock who preceded him
 to the better land twenty-one years ago. He was a soldier of Jesus Christ
having united with the Madison Baptist church about 40 years ago. He was also a
veteran of the Confederacy, having served during the war, and was employed
largely in the purchase of mules and horses. He never spoke unkindly of anyone,
was a devout reader of his Bible, though not often found in God's house; having
lost his hearing some time ago which made it painful to try and listen to
preaching. In the presence of a large company of sympathizing relatives and
friends his remains were laid to rest in the Madison cemetery, after a short
service conducted by his pastor the Rev. Stephen Crockett.
