From the Vanderbilt University Quarterly, quoting the Franklin Review-Appeal of 27 Aug 1903:
William House of Franklin, Tenn., died at his home on August 19, 1903, of typhoid fever. Mr. House left the University early in his junior year, being called home upon the death of his father to assume the responsibilities of eldest son and brother. He was for some time in the county clerk's office of Williamson County, then read law in the office of Hon. H. P. Fowlkes. He was admitted to the bar and began to practice in May, 1897. He was a graduate of the Mooney School, a member of the D.K.E. fraternity, and a Knight of Pythias, having held every office in the local lodge of the order and holding at the time of his death the office of deputy grand chancellor....
A meeting of the Franklin bar was held on August 22, at which resolutions of respect were adopted and a memorial address was delivered by Mr. James F. Eggleston.
