Former Prominent Taylor County Citizen Dies In Texas

Rev. J.T. Adams received a message last Friday that his nephew, Dr. W.F. Lloyd, 
of Dublin, Texas was dead and that his remains would be interred on Saturday.

The above is sad news to many people in Taylor county as well as other places 
throughout the state, as Mr. Lloyd was born and reared near Butler and was 
living here when he joined the South Georgia Conference in which he remained 
for several years rising to that eminence in the conference which placed him as 
a presiding Elder and other appointments of first note.

He was transferred to the West Texas Conference to First Street Church in Fort 
Worth, Texas.  He was made president of the Polytechnic College of Fort Worth 
and received the degree of D.D.  He was transferred from there to Walnut Grove 
Church, Louisville, Ky., at which place the hard strenuous work of his life 
began to tell upon his nervous system, and with the hope of improvement of his 
health, his physician so recommending, he was transferred to Virginia, but the 
change coupled with the best medical aid of the State were futile, as his 
health continued to decline, so he left Virginia and returned to Texas and 
located at Dublin where he remained until he was called to his reward abode.

It was claimed that he had neuresthenia, but with that claim, it seems that the 
medical fraternity near clearly understood the case.

Dr. Lloyd has two sisters to survive him, Mrs. J.S. Brown, of Howard, and Mrs. 
Owen Ramsey, of Dixie, Ga.  The Herald extends sympathy to the bereaved ones.
