Obituary of William Thurman Bausell

5/28/1909

     Capt. Wm. T. Bausell, of Moccasin, passed to his reward last Saturday morning at 1:30 a. m., aged 87 years. The large crowd that attended his funeral on last Monday attested the fact that he was held in very high esteem. In early life he learned the stone mason trade, and his worked in Russell and Washington counties stands as a monument to his skill as a workman. He never had a law suit in his life, and never was warranted. He was a member of the Baptist church, and lived a consistent life. Rev. Frank Fuller paid a glowing tribute to his life and character and performed the last sad rights at the burial.
