Shelbyville "Death Doings in Bedford County"  From our Correspondent, March 
27, 1871.  I send you the sad news of death gathering to his silent hosts the 
strong and useful ones of our citizens.  On Saturday evening late, William 
Tune, Esquire died at his residence, five miles north of Shelbyville.  The 
deceased was a highly esteemed citizen, well known throughout the county.  He 
will be remembered as an able an vigilant guardian of the public interests 
during a long term of service as a Magistrate.  He leaves a numerous family 
and many friends to mourn the bereavement.
Mr. Montgomery Caldwell, one of our pillars of granite worth, a citizen of 
influence and a Christian gentleman of solid virtues, died Sunday evening and 
will be buried this evening at 2 o'clock.  All will feel, as he is laid away, 
that a nobler heart or a better conducted life is not left among us.  Our 
community can but illy spare such men as the two mentioned and we are safe in 
saying that they sincerely grieve with the bereaved families.
Mr. Robert M'Night, a former citizen of this place, was buried in our new 
cemetery, having died near Farmington.  We had no personal acquaintance with 
the deceased but learn that he was an estimable man. "Death's but a path that 
must be trod, If man would ever pass to God."

I found the above in the Republican National Banner at the archives while 
researching for other information in the newspapers.
