The Georgia Enterprise, June 4, 1869

OBITUARY
  Death has been in our midst. His victim was WM. BARRY, who was born in Cork,
Ireland, August 2, 1816, and left us on the morning of June 2,1869. He
spent thirty-six years of his life in Covington. What has been his record.
His quiet life is passed, his guileless heart is still; but we should
remember his open, candid, genial nature, his generous emotions, faithfulness
to friends, and his quick, ready response to suffering humanity wherever
found. Who that has traveled the path that he trod, does not remember
how truthful he was, how brave in any cause he believed right? Poverty
was never an obstacle in the way of his charities; he gave freely, liberally,
and without question. He stopped not to reason, but at once obeyed the 
generous impulse, which seemed never to desert him.
  One who has known him from his childhood, and traveled close by his side
up to his death, bears this record of his life.
W.W.C.
