The Hugo Husonian (Hugo, Okla.), Thursday, July 6, 1911
IN MEMORIAM.
Rev. William Madison Akins was born May 28, 1861, at Cumby, Texas. He departed this life on May 20, 1911, and was buried at Old Goodland, May 21.
Brother Akins professed faith in Christ in August, 1881. He began preaching soon after his conversion and was active in the work until about one year ago when his health failed him.
He moved to Hugo in 1902 and located three miles west of town at what is now known as Forrest Home. He began preaching at that place and soon organized a Baptist Church that is now known as Forrest Home church, of which he was pastor for seven years in succession.
He leaves a wife and ten children to mourn his loss. Two girls now live in Texas, a son in Mississippi, and the other seven children still live with their mother on the farm three miles west of town.
The wife has lost a devoted companion, the children a loving father, but may God comfort and heal their broken hearts, and may they so live in this life that they may meet him in Heaven.
May God Bless his aged mother, is brother, his wife and sweet little children is the humble prayer of his pastor. R.E. Anderson.
