Bedford Times-Republican, Friday March 17, 1905 [p. 1]
Death Claims an Old Settler.
From Thursday's Daily
William Howery died at his home in the northeast part of the city this morning at 12:30 of heart disease. The funeral will be held tomorrow at 2 p. m.
The deceased lacked only one milestone of reaching man's allotted time of three score and ten, and many years of that long life had been spent in Taylor County. He came here in an early day and with his wife settled on a farm five miles southeast of town. Here they lived until six months ago when they moved to Bedford. No children ever came to bless their home and the widow is left alone with no near relatives to share and lighten her sorrow.
Mr. Howery has not been well for some time but was only taken seriously ill on last Sunday. Since that time he has grown gradually worse, until just after midnight last night he breathed his last.
