Middle Ga. Argus – Week of August 24, 1893
William B. Browning, the subject of this sketch, was born in Monroe County, 
Georgia., November 3rd, 1869, and died in Jackson, Ga., August 14, 1893, aged 
23 years, 9 months and 11 days.

After preparing himself for business he went to Macon, having been employed as 
traveling salesman for the Macon Grocery Co.  he afterwards moved to Jackson, 
about the 1st of August, 18893, to take charge of the books of the Jackson 
Mercantile Co.  During his short life in Jackson he not only ranked among our 
best business young men, but by his upright deportment and gentlemanly bearing 
had drawn around him some strong social ties and all who came in contact with 
him had learned to love and respect him.  He had never united with any church, 
though at heart he was a Missionary Baptist, and would doubtless have united 
with that church soon.  While our young friend was not openly affiliating with 
the church militant, we rejoice in the belief and hope that he was a member of 
the church triumphant, having professed conversion and having given himself to 
God in his fifteenth year, and at his death was trusting in the merits of a 
crucified and resurrected Savior.

The citizens of our community extend their deepest and most heartfelt sympathy 
to the bereaved family in the loss of their darling son and brother, whose loss 
is irreparable, and whose grief is too sacred to be reached by expressions of 
human condolence, and can alone be healed by the balm in Gilead and the 
Physicians there.
