BACON LEVEL News 

Mr. Austin Bunch, one of our oldest citizens, who has been sick a long time, 
is quite low. 


NEWSPAPER issue of Wednesday, October 30, 1907 

BACON LEVEL News 

Just as the golden ark of day sank beneath the western horizon last Wednesday, 
Oct. 23rd, the spirit passed from the weary body, and the soul of Austin Bunch 
took its flight to enter the rest prepared for the saints of God. For long 
months he had lain upon his couch in the home of his devoted daughter Mrs. S. 
E. Bradshaw, calmly awaiting the summons "come up higher." It is no 
exaggeration to say that Bro. Bunch was one of the best men we ever knew. He 
was and had been for over 50 years a humble, earnest, consecrated follower of 
his Master, a deacon in the church, an exemplary citizen, a faithful soldier 
in the Mexican War and Civil War and a man that the young could safely pattern 
after.

Bro. Bunch was born in Greene County, Georgia April 21, 1823 and was 84 years, 
6 months and 2 days old at the time of his death. The funeral services were 
conducted by Rev. W.H. Henry and the interment was by the side of his wife at 
the old family burial grounds in Troup County, Georgia
