*Obituary
Fayetteville Democrat
Saturday, February 27, 1875
Tribute of Respect- Whereas, in the dispensation of a mysterious Providence we are called upon to pay the last tribute of respect and love to the memory of an esteemed brother. Death has for the first time invaded our ranks and borne off one of our brightest jewels in the person of Bro. A. T. Appleby, who departed this life on the 15th of February 1875 at his residence in Washington County, Arkansas, of pneumonia, in the 46th year of his age. – As a father and husband he was kind and affectionate, as a neighbor he was kind and obliging; as a member of Mt. Comfort Grange No. 150 he was punctual and esteemed by all. Were it not for the hope that he is now enjoying the light of Eternity’s Truth and where the bright links of love, purity and fidelity cannot be severed, our spirits would be shrouded in the most gloomy thoughts of death, the grave and eternity. Resolved, that the Grange in the death of Brother Appleby has lost one of its best members. Resolved, that we sympathize with the bereaved and sorrowing family and commend them for consolation to Him that doeth all things well. Resolved, that we cherish an affectionate regard for the memory of our deceased brother and as a token of our grief we wear the usual badge of mourning. Resolved, that this preamble and resolutions be published in the Fayetteville Democrat and a copy be furnished the family of the deceased. Signed, Rev. T. Banks, G.W. Moore, J. Clark, Com.
