fering pain and distress, and that many

Resolutions.
The subject*#! this sketch aud reso*
lutiou, Dr William 11. 11. Peek, was
born iu Newton county, Ga., on the
llthjiay of October, 1840, and moved
with his pareu's to Henry county while
iu youth, where he lived the most of
his after life, and died at his home at
Locust Grove, Henry county, Ga., 011
Oct. Ist, 1805, being fifty four years,
eleveu mouths and twenty days old.
Brother Peek’s educational advan
tages were limited, but he applied him
self diligently and acquired a good
practical education. While quite
young he selected medicine as a pro
fession aud began to apply hitnsel f
arduously to its study ; but the Con
federate war coming on, his arrange
ments and prospects were broken up
and he enlisted as a soldier iu the con
federate service, bvt was tendered and
accepted a position with the medical
aud surgical department of the field
that afforded some opportunity for
practical study of his profession.
Ou the day of October, 1861, he
was happily mariied to Miss S. A.
Miller, of Alabama, with whom he
lived through after life, and who still
lives to mourn his death. There were
born to this happy couple ouly two
children. One sweet little girl died iu
early childhood aud the other, Mrs
Bostwick, survives with a family sadly
bereaved at bis death.
At the close of the war, Dr. Peek
resumed practice and devoted the most
of his life to his profession, finding
some time for agriculture, for politic ß
and for other duties ami pleasures of
ife. As a physician he was faithful,
devoted and kind, nearly always doing
la large prac ice, in which ho was emi
neutly successful. As a citizen he was
upright and honorable, being called
upon at times to fill places of public
trust, aud at one time represented his
county faithfully and with honor in
the state legislature. He was a con
siderate, obliging aud good neighbor ;
as a husband most devoted aud.loving ;
as a father, indulgent but firm, tender,
kind aud considerate. He was a great
lover of nature and of the beautiful,
decorating all bis surroundings with
the most artistic taste Brother Peek
was made a Mason during the year
1863, and was always ardently devoted
to the craft, exemplifying its precepts
iu his conduct with all. He had never
| united with any branch of the Christian
| church, but was a strong believer in
Christianity, having very broad reli
gious views, and was a lover and sup
porter of the Christian church —where-
fore we offer the following resolutions :
Ist. That in the death of our worthy
brother and W. M., W H. H. Peek,
society has lost an ornament and exem
plary member ; that the country has
lost oue of her most useful and honored
citizens, and his'cointnunity*aii able and
kind physician ; that, his wife lias lost
a most loving, faithful and devoted
husband, his daughter and grand ehil
deru a kind, lender and most consid
erate father ; that Christianity lias lost
a member and friend, and that we as
F. A. M. have lost a faithful and devot
ed member of the fraternity and officer
of the lodge.
2nd. That we bow submissively to
the will of God, Knowing that Ho does
all things well ; that we will cherish
his memory and hope to meet him in
the trand lodge above; that we extend
to his wife and relatives our heartfelt
sympathy aud condolence.
3rd. That a blank page be left on
our lodge book, with suitable inßcrip
tioriß to his memory ; ihat a copy of
these resolutions be furnished The
Henry County Weekly with request
to publish, and that a copy be furnished
the family of our departed brother.
