THE WATCHMAN April 26, 1882
Wednesday, April 26, 1882



We found the memory of an old Blount County man very dear to the people of

that place (Murfreesboro, TN). In token of this there is a tablet in the First

Presbyterian Church (there) with the following inscription in beautiful

letters: “In memoriam. Rev. William Eagleton, D.D. Born Blount County, Tenn.,

March 25, 1796. Died at Murfreesboro, March 28, 1866. He came to us Dec. 1829,

and for 37 years broke to us the bread of life. How good and true, how

guileless and truthful, how sympathizing and affectionate, this shepherd was,

we, his flock only know.”



Mr. D.G. Wright, a prominent and much respected cictizen of Rockford, died

last Friday morning at 6 o’clock. Mr. Wright’s remains were interred in the

Magnolia Cemetery, at Maryville, next day. In his death this county loses a

valuable citizen, and his family have the heartfelt sympathy of a multitude of

friends. Mrs. Wright, we learn, is also very ill, and at last reports her

condition was extremely critical.



Died---At Rockford, Thursday night, April 20th, Mr. S.H. George, a well known

citizen of that place.



Mr. Kinnamon, who lives on Little River lost a small child last week. It had

been ill for some time.



The printer made a mistake the other week in noticing the death of Harry

McNabb. It was Harvey McNabb who died.



Died---On the 22nd inst., in Miller’s Cove, Mr. Vance Walker.
