Hi Betty,

William Edward Peters died 3 Feb 1948 and is buried in the Masonic Cemetery, in Pocahontas, Randolph Co., AR. I got the previously posted information from an obituary you sent me last year. I would like to find the news article written about his death: he was beaten to death in his home by some guys who thought he had some money hidden somewhere. I'm sure that would have made the news, don't you think?
