Several months ago he sought the healing waters of Florida, and was greatly benefited. He was eager to attend the Veterans reunion in Athens, but did not go; ere his comrades returned, he had joined the gathered hosts of the Grey on the other shore. Only a few brief years ago, he built a cozy cottage on Talbot Heights. To him the Mecca of his life’s pilgrimage was his own hearthstone. Here he and his gentle wife dwelt in blessed contentment. Mr. Hall was ever faithful, patriotic and kind. He served his country from the highest sense of loyalty and duty, and leaves behind him an honorable record as soldier and patriot. Of this his surviving comrades delight to tell. He acted well his part and was ready to obey the summons, and sleeps in the church yard at Mathews Chapel. Besides his wife he leaves nine children. They are: Mr. Seab R. Hall of Talbot County, Mr. William Hall of Dolomite, Ala., Mr. Jesse Hall of Columbus, Messrs. Ben and Homer Hall, Mrs. Estelle Beck of Cleola, Mrs. Helen Moon of Shiloh, Mrs. Marilu Moon who lives at the Hall homestead in the county.
