Peace Entroy RCL Obituary and Local Notes
On last Saturday evening as the sun faded over western hilltops, George F. Spence died after long ill health. His body rests in Abilene Cemetery, with funeral by Rev. W. W. Roop. The bereaved family receives sympathy. Local social notes mention visits, church picnics planned, and a commencement trip to Carrollton. Roop Hardware promotes L and M Paints. A tale from the New York Post describes a man stealing his own grip from an express wagon, settled by compromise. A Southern diary excerpt recounts a freed slave Mammy revealing manumission papers from her master, a story from Dixie After the War.
