Son of Mason & Elizabeth Cook Tarpley. Husband of (1) Temperance Holt, (2) Ann, (3) Mary.

A Good Man Gone.
Dr. W. C. Tarpley died at his home in Company Shops, N. C., June 19, 1883. For nearly five years he had been confined to his room by failing health. He had lived beyond the term allotted men ordinary, being in his 82 year at the time of his death.
Dr. Tarpley was married three times, and leaves a wife and three children, twenty-eight grand children and twenty-six great grand children behind him.
In all the relations of life Dr. Tarpley was a good and true man. The poor never appealed to him in vain, and the church of which he was a member always found him willing and liberal to help forward all her enterprises. He was for many years a member of the Christian Church at Providence. During his active life and especially during his last illness he spoke of possessing a lively christian hope.
Many relatives and friends gathered at old Providence to place his body away to await the resurrection.
Funeral by W. S. LONG.
