Perrysburg, Wood County, Ohio. Sep 7, 1864, p. 3. DIED. At the residence of his Grandfather, John Campbell, Esq., in Gilead, Sept. 3, 1864, Willie, son of M. Edgar and Mary E. King, of McConnelsburg, Pennsylvaniy [sic], aged about 7 months. But a few shorts weeks ago, Willie, in company with his mother, came from his afar off home on a visit to his Grand-parents. Soon he sickened and although all was done that love or care could dictate, daily he wasted away until death at length relieving him from the sorrows of earth he passed peacefully away to that better land beyond the skies. Though deeply pained at his seemingly too early demise, we cannot but feel that "Tis better far in childhood's Friendless years, ere sorrows come and cares of earth Enslave us, sweetly to fall asleep and Wake in heaven" File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/oh/wood/obits/k/king2415gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/ohfiles/ File size: 1.4 Kb
