Death of Mr. William Brown.
Mr. William Brown, one of the oldest and most respected citizens of Madison, died at the residence of his son-in-law Mr. Israel Fowler, at the suburb of Fairmount, near Madison, last Saturday afternoon from the decrepitude of age, being in his 94th year. Mr. Brown's life history covered the history of Madison. He was a most exemplary man in all the characteristics of an upright man. He was unpresuming in his manner of life, but true in everything. Until within the last few years he lived in the house which he owned on the Southwest corner of Third and Elm street streets, now occupied by Mr. James E. Lewis and family. In early times in the business affairs of this city Mr. Brown was a hatter by trade and conducted that business for some time with the late Charles Bassnett and the late Capt. John Kirk. He was careful in his personal habits and business methods and got along quietly and smoothly. He owed nobody and ill-will nor did anybody have cause to owe him any grudge. It is a pleasure to the writer of these lines to say these things of Mr. Brown because we know they are true. The funeral will take place at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon at the residence of Captain Israel Fowler at Fairmount.
