William Perry Sharp, Died, at the home of his mother, Mrs. Malinda Sharp, near New Winchester, Indiana, July 4, 1904, at 4 p.m., William Perry Sharp. Elder W.P. Sharp was born in Hendricks county, Indiana, August 5, 1838, and at the time of his death was 65 years and 11 months of age. Elder Sharp, accompanied by his wife, started from Longton in June to visit the World's Fair and his old home and relatives in Indiana.
