4	"WILLIAM DENBOW - Obituary." "Once more the angel of death visited our community aand took away one of our old soldiers of the rebellion, also a gallant soldier for the cause of christianity for nearly 50 years. William Denbow, was born in Carroll County, Ohio, April 25, 1839, departed this life February 3, 1919, being at the time of his death 79 years, 9 months, and 8 days old. He was united in marriage to Anna Dillon November 12, 1857. To this union were added nine children--three boys and six girls--Thomas, Hamilton and William E. Denbow, Mrs Mary Gramlich and Mrs. Etta Knopf of near Lewisville, Mrs. Nora Miracle and Mrs. Hattie Leisure of Stafford, Mrs. Jennie Thompson of Lower City, Ohio. His little daughter Emma and his loving companion preceded him to the great beyond. He also leaves 32 grand children, 19 great grand children and a large number of relatives and friends to mourn. By his death the church here loses one of its faithful and untiring workers, the country a good citizen, and his children a devoted father. Rev. Chessir of Belle Valley, Ohio, conducted the funeral services at the home of Mrs. W. O. Knopf where he had been living for some time, and the remaining services were conducted at the M.E. Church at Braken Chapel, at the grave. The G.A.R. Post closed the services and his remains were laid to rest to await the resurrection morn. We believe that the Master will say unto him. "Well Done, thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joys of thy Lord." _________ Card of Thanks. We extend our most heartfelt thanks to those neighbors and friends who kindly assisted us during the illness and death of our father. Also, the Grand Army, Rev. Chesshir, the choir for the beautiful masic, and the kha--- boys who served as pallbearers. The kindness will never be forgotten.	Denbow, William (I1452)

7	"History of Athens County, Ohio," by Charles M. Walker, 1869, page 352 states: "Jeremiah Clements and Israel Bobo, noted as hunters in the early settlement of the county, killed in one season sixty-five bears in one neighborhood, included in the site of the present town of Hebbardsville. The same men were fond of whiskey, and, to get a supply, took a horse-load of bear skins to the Ohio River and traded for a barrel of the desired article. The next difficulty was how to get it home. They finally cut two poles from the forest and formed sort of a drag to be drawn by the horse, the largest ends of the pole resting on the ground. The barrel of whiskey was then secured between the poles and thus dragged through the woods to Alexander township, where they lived. This was the first barrel of whiskey ever brought into Alexander. In after years the use of it became common and greatly the fashion, but at the present time it is not kept for sale at anyplace in the township."	Bobo, Israel (I536)
