Enoch Callaway Prather August 13, 1892
Bro. Enoch Callaway Prather died in his home at Hogansville, Aug. 13, 1892,
aged thirty-eight years.  He joined the Baptist church in 1871 and has been
a consistent member ever since then.  He was married in 1874 to Miss Rebecca
C. West, and five lovely children now survive him, who with his devoted wife
have our deepest sympathy. He had an attack of LaGrippe in the fall of 1889,
from which he never fully recovered. He was troubled very much with
dyspepsia also, and since last fall has been suffering with rheumatism.  At
time he suffered intensely, but through it all he never murmured, his faith
in God was strong, his hope of Heaven bright, and his cheerful resignation
to the Divine will of God was remarkable.  His greatest joy was in telling
the wonderful love of Jesus. May the God of all love and mercy comfort and
sustain the bereaved family.      W. S. H.
Hogansville, Ga. August 18, 1892
