Keadle as written in "The Camilla Enterprise" dated 19 Sep 1930. Mr. W. W. Keadle, a well known and highly esteemed citizen of the Hopeful community died suddenly Tuesday, 16 Sep 1930, night from what appeared to be an attack of heart trouble. Mr. Keadle was spending the night at the home of a neighbor, Mr. J. B. Kearns. He had attended preaching services at Greenwood earlier in the evening and he and Mr. Kearns talked a while before retiring. Apparently he was in the best of health and spirits. They retired about 10:00 PM and shortly after retiring Mr. Kearns heard someone making a noise as if sneezing, followed by a peculiar choking sound. Mr. Kearns got up to investigate and found that the noise came from Mr. Keadle's room and when he entered he found Mr. Keadle dying, the end coming before assistance could be summoned. Mr. Keadle was between 65 and 70 years of age and had lived in the community for a number of years, moving from east Mitchell. He was counted one of the community's best citizens and was highly regarded by all who knew him His wife died about five years ago and since that time he had made his home with his children.
