A.C. Hill, Unknown dates
"Strong" Hill. The people of Glasgow were greatly shocked Saturday, when it was announced that Mr. A. C. Hill, the well known church and business man of town had died suddenly of heart trouble. Mr. Hill was a native of Campbellsville, but came with his young wife to Glasgow near 20 years ago and has since been a very active and valuable citizen. He was deeply religious, a leader in the Methodist Church, and always active in every moment for the uplift of the community.
"He is survived by his wife, who was Miss Annie C. Carter of Campbellsville, and one son, Morris, about 19 years of age. He is also survived by two brothers, Messrs. Billy Hill, formerly of this place but now of Bowling Green, and Ed Hill, a merchant at Campbellsville.
"For the past number of years, Mr. Hill has been the Glasgow representative of the wholesale grocery firm of J. D. Reynolds & Co., of Horse Cave. He had previously traveled for Belknap Hardware & Manufacturing Co., of Louisville and for a time was in the wholesale grocery business in Glasgow.
"Mr. Hill was a man of the highest honor, and his death is a real loss to the entire city.

"Among those who accompanied the remains to their last resting place were Bro. Piercy, Messrs. J. C. and Lyon Hutcherson, W. G. Dougherty, J. H. Gee, J. E. Watson and Howe Ralston of this place. Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Boles left on the early train Monday hoping to get to Campbellsville in time, but fell in behind a wreck and got there after the funeral.
