Death of an Aged Minister

News was received in the city yesterday of the death of Rev. W.G. Booth, which 
occurred at his home near Juniper early Friday morning the 7th inst.  The 
deceased was about 71 years of age and was a superannuated minister, having 
been for a number of years a prominent member of the Florida Methodist 
Conference.  He is survived by a wife, four sons and one daughter, who have the 
deepest sympathy of many friends in their sad bereavement.  Mr. Booth was 
distinguished for his many noble traits of character, and his life was a most 
exemplary one.  He was twice married.  His second wife, who was Miss Laura 
Lowe, still survives him.

The above item taken from the Columbus Enquirer-Sun, of the 8th inst., will be 
sad news to the many friends in this section of “Uncle Billie Booth,” as he was 
familiarly known, having preached throughout this section for a great many 
years.  Mr. Booth was a strong preacher and did much for the cause of Christ.  
The end of such a life as he lived must have been peaceful and happy, and the 
crown which he sought and won will ever shine bright in the kingdom above.  
Rest in peace, brother, and may we all meet you bye and bye.
