NOTES


Obituary of William Tatum from the Prattville Progress

On night of the 11th quietly the spirit of Mr. Wm. Tatum winged its way beyond the scenes of the transitory abode.  Mr. Tatum lived about ten miles north of Prattville near Pine Level church.  A few days ago he celegrated his ninety ninth birthday.  He was born in Virginia, March 4, 1792 and when thirty years old he moved to this county where he has lived ever since.  He was a devout member of the church an a Christian man.  But want of space will not permit us to go into the details of his life and death.  Surely the pearly gates of the Celestial City will open wide for him whose life on earth was ever devoted to aiding the weak, to lightening the burdens of others, to bringing their souls nearer to their God, and who cause most smiles and fewest frowns.
