Mr. W.A. Beckham of Arlington In Luck

Dupree Peacock, an elderly gentleman, was buried in the old family burying 
ground several miles from Ellaville on Tuesday last.  He was a wealthy farmer, 
owning some 2,500 acres of land and other property.  He died leaving no 
children.  A part of his lands were left to W.A. Beckham, of Arlington, a one-
armed ex-confederate.  Mr. Beckham’s grandfather Howell Gibbs, reared Peacock – 
took him up a needy boy and put him on his feet and the bread cast upon the 
waters returned to Howell Gibb’s grandson, an old soldier needing this help.
