Mr. Alexander Morrison.
On Saturday last Mr. Alexander Morrison, familiarly known to a host of friends and kinsmen as "Uncle Sandy," died at his home near Glenwood. He had reached the ripe old age of 81 years, lacking a few days, and was known and respected as one of the solid men of the original county of Montgomery. He spent his long and useful life amid the scenes of his boyhood, and reared a large family. His remains were laid to rest in the Glenwood Cemetery on Sunday in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends. His life-long friend and former pastor, Rev. C.C. Hines, of McRae, conducted the funeral service.
His surviving children are six sons, John L., Hugh A., David, Willie, Patrick and Dan A. Morrison, and four daughters, Mrs. Daniel Pope, Mrs. Carl Williams (sic: Colquitt Williamson), Mrs. J.D. McDaniel and Mrs. Stone who resided with him until his death. (obituary contributed by Olivia Williamson Braddy)
