• Notes

  Barnesville Enterprise FEBRUARY 28, 1898 Death of Wm. J. Barlow In the death of Mr. William J. Barlow, which occurred at his home south of town on Monday morning February 21, the community loses one of the most honorable and honored men. Without ostentation, modest and unassuming in demeanor, yet he builded for himself a character for honesty and a reputation and record for uprightness and reliability that the great and noble ones of earth might envy. Mr. Barlow had faith in his fellow man and no word of slander ever passed his lips. He spoke ill of no one and everyone had faith in him. In dying he leaves to his family the heritage of a blameless life and a record for honesty of purpose that all might wish to emulate. Mr. Barlow was not a native of this country. He was born in Darlington, England, and came with his parents to America when only eight years of age. They lived near Baltimore for five years and then came to Barnesville. For sixty years he lived on the farm south of town, where he reared a most estimable family of children, and where by industry and frugality he acquired a competence. In connection with his brother, Mr. Amos Barlow, he started early in the berry growing business, and they did much to foster and encourage the culture of small fruits in this section. Between the brothers there was a remarkable attachment and an affection that lasted to the grave. Mr. Barlow's wife died about two years ago, and since that time he apparently lost his interest in the affairs of life and seemed only waiting. "Till the shadows were a little longer grown." _ His health gradually failed, and the burden of years weighed heavily. His step grew more feeble and the infirmities of age, gradually overcame him until Monday morning when the final summons came and he sank to rest. He leaves a family of four children - one son, Mr. James Barlow, of Quaker City, and three girls, Mrs. Walter Gregg, of Newark, and Mrs. Saddler and Mrs. Barlow of Baltimore, all of whom were home when he died. Funeral services were held on Tuesday afternoon. Internment in Green Mount Cemetery. Sincere sympathy is extended the bereaved children and relatives in the loss of their father.
