WRIGHT, REV. A. B., Maryville Times, (Blount Co. TN) Wednesday, November 22, 1893:
"Well Known Man Gone---Rev. A.B. Wright passed away quite unexpectedly at his home in this place last night. [November 8] He had been sick ever since he was thrown from his horse several weeks ago, and last Saturday he was attacked by bilious fever, which complicated matters and weakened him very much. On Tuesday night he was prostrated very suddenly, and last night a second attack of the same sort resulted fatally without an instant's warning. His son, W.D. Wright, and daughter, Mrs. Tobias Peters, and F.H. Dunning were with him at the end. His eldest son, J.C. Wright, who had been here to see him, had left in the afternoon for home, but was recalled by telegraph and returned this morning accompanied by the other son, T.A. Wright. The funeral will be held Saturday at 11 o'clock in the M.E. church, interment will take place at Mt. Vernon with Masonic honors, the deceased being an esteemed member of that organization. Mr. Wright was probably better known throughout this section than any other man in it. He was born in Fentress County in 1826, and has been engaged in the service of the Lord since his 22nd year, and has preached in nearly every church in Morgan, Fentress, Scott, Anderson, Overton, Pickett, Roane and Cumberland Counties. He was also County Clerk of Fentress County for four years. A widow, three sons and one daughter survive him." --from the Sunbright Dispatch, Morgan County, Tennessee.
