Horry Herald February 26, 1903
Death of Judge Hardwick 

Wm. E. Hardwick, Judge of Probate for Horry County died at his residence here,
on last Monday morning just before the hour of seven, after an illness of
several weeks, in the 72nd year of his age.  He was elected Judge of Probate in
1884, and held the office continually from then until his death.  Kind and
accommodating to all, he was a popular county officer, and was reelected many
times without opposition.  He was twice married; first, to Miss A. C. Roberts,
second to Mrs.  Mary Cannon, who with one child, and children of the first
marriage survive him. 

The funeral took place at 10 o’clock on Tuesday at the Methodist Church,
attended by a large gathering of his relatives and friends.  He loved a devoted
member of the Methodist church. 

His death creates a vacancy in the office of Judge of Probate, and an election
will have to be ordered to fill the vacancy.  Whether the candidates will be
nominated by primary of convention simply is not decided.
