Obit: Clinton MO, Jan 16 1909 - William Adair, who had been a patient sufferer with cancer for several years and confined to his bed since last June, was called by his Maker Monday about noon. He was among the prominent farmers and stock raisers in this county and a son of Abner J. and Mary Adkins Adair. Full biography in the Henry County History of 1883. His devoted wife and four children are left to mourn: H. Clay Adair, Mrs. Hale Montgomery, Mrs. S. T. Neill and Miss Emma Adair. Six grandchildren. William Adair was the best loved of Henry county citizens, a man who always extended you a hearty welcome to his home and he will be sadly missed. Mr. Adair was born January 26, 1831, and had lived on his farm in Henry county for 55 years. Years ago, a cancer formed near his left eye and for several years that cancer has been an eating, torturous tumor, a sore that refused to be healed. It seems that medical science has never yet discovered an antidote for that loathsome disease. He patiently bore his suffering and death, sooner or later, comes to all.
