SHAW, William F. A.

Culleoka, July 12 - Mr. W.F.A. Shaw, one of the oldest citizens of our community, died at his home on the Mooresville Pike, Friday night, July 8, 1898. He was a farmer, a member of the Friendship Baptist church, and highly respected by all who knew him. During the winter he was knocked down by a horse, and was so crippled that he was never able to exercise his limbs afterwards. He was buried at the family grave-yard and the funeral exercises were conducted by Rev. T.T. Thompson.
