The Butler Herald Tuesday, February 14, 1911 Page Three Uncle Wesley Hill The sad intelligence of the death of Uncle Wesley Hill was received in this city on yesterday. He died Sunday night at his home near Southland at the advanced age of 80 years. Mr. Hill suffered from partial paralysis for several months before his death. He was a man of excellent habits, fine moral character, and sturdy constitution, to which his sunny disposition is largely attributed. He met most of the conditions and situations of life with a joke, yet he was a practical, matter of fact man, had his own way of extracting merriment from life as he went along, and was not disposed to worry about matters that could not be bettered in other ways. He was always a good neighbor, and there was no happier family circle in the land than his. When he died full of years, and ready to be gathered to his Father’s, the grief that was felt over the close of his long career was widespread and sincere.
