Notes for Raymond J DREWRY
Dresden Enterprise  July 10, 1914

Moores Chapel Vicinity
Last Saturday morning when most every body was celebrating the Fourth, the home of Mr. Harve Drewry was very, very sad, as death entered that home at 8:30 Saturday morning and claimed for itís own Raymond. They thought he was better Thursday and had hopes of his recovery, but, alas! it was only a change for the worse. Raymond was at Hickman working when he was struck down with typhoid fever. His mother was called to come at once. She went down there and stayed two or three days, when she returned home bringing Raymond with her. His brother, Flag, is in the army and could not come.
Hermon was at Memphis and they thought that Raymond was doing so well until a short while before he died that they had not sent for Hermon to come home until it was too late. He got home Sunday morning. Raymond leaves a father, mother, several brothers and sisters and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his departure. He was buried at Meridian Sunday.
