The Texas Christian Advocate. December 20, 1884, p. 7
Mr. John P. Willis
Willis. – John P. Willis, son of Dr. T. L. Willis and wife, was born in Pike county,
Ala., Nov. 4, 1864, and 
died Nov. 2, 1884. His death was sudden and unexpected. He was thrown from a horse
and instantly 
killed. “In the midst of life we are in the midst of death.” Johnnie was a good boy,
devoted to his 
parents, and an affectionate brother. He professed religion and joined the M. E.
Church, South, at 
Denton, Texas, about eight years ago. He was consistent in his Christian walk and
conversation. He was 
regular in his attendance at church. At the time of his death he was secretary of
the Sunday-school. He 
was loved by all who knew him. He was buried in the Odd Fellows cemetery at Denton,
Texas, where he 
peacefully awaits the coming of the resurrection morn. May God bless his
grief-stricken parents, his 
brother, sister, and relations, and bring them at last to meet where sorrow is not
known. –D.J. Martin
