Evander Clifton Melton
Evander Clifton Melton who has been so ill so long died on Monday 
night, January 25th, 1904, and was buried Tuesday morning in Pine 
Apple Cemetery. He was eighteen years of age and well grown for his 
age and of fine physical development. He was conscious to the last or 
near the end and talked freely of his death and calmly to Rev. D. W. 
Ramsey, his pastor, and manifested through his own and prayers of 
pastor and friends a readiness for death. Death is always sad 
especially when the young is cut down. He had a winning disposition, 
was kind-hearted and popular with all who met him. If he could have 
lived to mature manhood, age would have softened and molded him into 
worthy manhood and useful citizenship. The affliction falls heavily 
upon his immediate family.
