AN OP THE SOUTH
Kearney Phillips, of Dyersburg, Tenn.,
and of this union the following children,
with their mother, Burvlve:
Charles Courtlandt, Jr., Kearney Phillips,
Amedia Linton (Mrs. Robert
Marion Bell), William Peyton, Florence
Phillips, Caroline Field, Henry Woodson,
and John Morton; also six grandchildren,
his aged mother, two sisters
and two brothers.
Mr. Walton had long been a loyal
member of the Presbyterian Church,
well grounded in its great principles
and devotedly attached to its history
and traditions. The Scriptures were
to him the Word of God indeed, the
final authority on all questions of faith
and practice. Their mysteries were the
secret things which belong unto the
Ix>rd our God and the clear, sublime
truths nf the WnrH worn fKa V* f r?
of ourselves and our children.
Mr. Walton was endowed with refined
social qualities, a warm heart,
a gentle manner, a responsive nature,
strong family attachments, and high
ideals of all the relations of life. He
was fond of wholesome reading, was
well grounded In the best literature,
especially in the writings of the old
standard authors. He loved music and
was gifted with a fine voice which he
used with good effect In public worship
and In the social circle.
He belonged to the old school of
gentlemen rather than the new and
cherished the memory and traditions of
Southern life of that earlier day when (
social, domestic and civil conditions
seemed almost Ideal.
In recent months Mr. Walton,
though engaged regularly in business
vocations seemed to thoBe near him to
be rapidly maturing In Christian character
and when the end came suddenly,
it seemed plain to them that he
had been under special gracious Influences
preparatory to an abundant
entrance Into the everlasting kingdom
of his Lord.
