William Black Dead

Mr. William Black who has been seriously ill at his home in depot town for some days, died Tuesday afternoon. He was born in Indiana 92 years ago, and came from there to Arkansas when but a child. In 1849 he came to Texas and settled at Dallas, when the place consisted of only three or four houses, later moving to Williamson County, settling in Round Rock. He was well known all over this section, having owned ranches in Williamson, Burnet and Brown counties at different times in the past, and at one time was considered quite wealthy. He assisted in driving the red men from this country and served as an honorable and efficient soldier in the Confederate army. He was the father of eight children, six of whom are still living, and all of them were with him during his last illness.
The funeral was conducted this afternoon from the family home, interment being made in the city cemetery.
