In Hopkinton, R. I., August 24, 1910, William H. Crandall, aged 45 years and 2 days.
Brother Crandall was the son of Isaac and Mary Jane Kenyon Crandall, and was born in Rockville, R. I., August 19, 1865. The most of h!s life had been spent in Rockville, but the last nine years had been passed in other parts of Hopkinton, and the last five on the Tomaquag Bluffs Farm, near Ashaway, R. I. December 8, 1886, he and Miss Ethlin V. Coon were united in holy wedlock, and to them were born four sons and three daughters, all of whom were at home at the time of his death, and together with his wife, father and mother, two brothers, Samuel of Rockville and Albert of Boston, Mass., and a large circle of friends, mourn his departure in the prIme of life. At the age of seventeen, he was baptized and united with the Seventh-day Baptist Church of Rockville, remaining a faithful member till his death. A neighbor writes of him, "He was very companionable, industrious, conscientious, a lover of home, and respected by the entire community.” For some months he had been battling with the white plague, at times hoping to triumph, but at last the dread disease claimed his body, but not his real self, the spirit. He knew that he must leave his wife and children, and though he longed to live that he might be their support, stay, and guide, yet, he was reconciled to his Father's will. The day before he passed away he called the family about his bed, bade them good-by, and asked them to meet him in heaven. Funeral services were conducted in his home, August 24, by William L. Burdick, assisted by Rev. T. H. Root, and interment took place at Rockville.
