Mr. R.T. Waller Passes Away

Mr. R.T. Waller, after suffering almost two years of painful illness, departed 
this life at his home near Zebulon, July 26, 1910, aged 62 years, 7 months and 
11 days.

Early in his life he connected himself with the M.E. Church South, in which 
connection he remained until death. He leaves to mourn his departure a devoted 
and sorely bereaved wife and one daughter, five sisters and one brother, 
besides a large circle of friends and relatives, but thank God they sorrow not 
as those who have no hope. His funeral was preached by the Rev. W.W. Childs and 
his body laid to rest in the family burying ground near his home, attended by a 
large concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives.

Mr. Waller was a devoted husband and a loving father, kind neighbor and 
Christian friend. He was a Confederate soldier. We extend our sympathy to the 
bereaved family and commend them to a covenant-keeping of God, the father.

His friend,
G.E. Lavender
