The Georgia Enterprise, April 18, 1873
Death of Dr. S. A. Hough
     This announcement will bring sadness to the hearts of all who knew this
Christian gentlemen. For many long months he has suffered severely, yet all his
pain and affliction was borne with Christian fortitude and endurance. A few
days ago he went to Atlanta and placed himself under the treatment of  an 
eminent physician. On Sunday morning last his spirit winged its flight from 
earth and his remains were brought to Oxford on the night of the day of his 
death. Dr. SYLVESTER A. HOUGH, was about 48 years old, and had been a ______
member of the Church for 40 years. As a profession he was Professor of Natural
Science in the S. M. F. College, at Covington. In respect to the memory of the 
deceased this Institute suspended for the day and the pupils attended the 
funeral exercises of their once favorite teacher. Rev. W. R. Branham and Rev.
L. M. Smith officiated at the burial services. Oxford has lost a good citizen,
Society has lost a useful member and the Church a consistent Christian in the 
death of Dr. Hough.
