YEAR 1914

W.D. ATTWOOD
Mr. W.D. Attwood, Sr., of New Edinburg, Ark., died at his home Oct.10th, 1914 at 8:45 p.m., after an illness of several months duration.
The subject of this sketch was born in Newberry district in the stateof S.C. about the year 1855, and was therefore in the 59th year of hisage. His parents moved to this county the year after the war in companywith a number of families who lost their fortunes during the civil warand started for the west in in quest of a new country where life might bestarted anew under more favorable circumstances. Some of these familiesstopped in Tenn. and Mississippi, but Mr. Attwood selected ClevelandCounty and settled on the farm now owned by Mr. Coot Attwood in SmithTownship, where he reared a large family consisting of six sons and onedaughter. Three of these sons, viz., G.C., Noble, Coot and the sister,Mrs. Batchelor, of Rison, still survive.
W.D. Attwood came to Edinburg to work in a store about the year 1878,and later formed a partnership with the late E.P. Marks and went into amercantile business.
In the year 1883 he married a daughter of his business partner, and tothis union was born six children, five sons and one daughter. Four sonsviz., E.T., E.M., Grady and Finch, and the daughter, Mrs. M.P. Grantham,are still living. Mrs. Attwood died in Sept., 1911.
In May of this year Mr. Attwood was married a second time to MissMargaret Marks, a teacher of marked ability, who was kind and devoted toMr. Attwood during the few months they were permitted to live together.
In the year 1898 Mr. E.P. Marks died and W.D. Attwood bought out theinterest of his estate in the mercantile business and continued businessuntil his death. He was successful in business and accumulatedconsiderable wealth during his career as a merchant. But he was liberaland gave of his substance unsparingly to help promote the interest of thepublic.
The pople of New Edinburg and vicinity owe him a debt of gratitude forthe interest he took in the upbuilding of the school at that place. Hedonated three acres of land for the building and gave $300 in cash,without which it would have been impossible to have erected such abuilding.
He was never identified with any church, but did his part towardssupporting such institutions.
He belonged to the W.O.W. at this place, having joined as a chartermember about twelve or fifteen years ago, and always took an interest inthe functions of the lodge, and no doubt will be greatly missed at themeetings.
He was buried by the side of his former wife at the family buryinggrounds on the evening of Oct. 11th in the presence of the largestcongregation ever seen at a funeral at that place.
The religious exercises were conducted by Rev. J.P. Snipes, pastor ofthe Presbyterian church, and consisted of scripture reading, prayer,appropriate remarks and singing the following verses of Psalm 39.
"My end and length of days, to me O Lord unveil,
that I may know in all my way, How weak I am and frail.
Lord thou hast made my years, To measure but a span:
As naught to Thee my age appears, How vain at best is man.
I am a stranger here, Dependent on Thy grace
A Pilgrim, as my fathers were, With no abiding place.
Spare Lord and strength bestow, My fainting soul restore,
Ere I to dust and darkness go, And be on earth no more."
After the religious exercises comrades of Hackberry Camp buried theirdeceased brother with the honors of their lodge to await the resurrectionmorning when we are taught by the Word of God; all men, nations, tonguesand Kingdoms shall be called forth to be judged according the record oftheir lives while here on earth.
May the bereaved ones be comforted in this sad hour by the thoughtcontained in the following:
"Those that are broken in heart, And troubled in their mind,
He healeth, and their painful wounds, He tenderly up binds."
J.H. Hunter.
