Gregory, William C. (6 Oct 1892 - 23 Jan 1919)

William Clair Gregory died at his home a mile south of Columbia, Clark County, Wis. at about three o'clock in the morning, on Jan. 23, 1919, after a week's illness with the flu, followed by complications. On Wednesday consultation of physician was held at his home, but not much hopes were held out for his recovery. Death occurred from heart failure at the hour noted above.

Will Gregory was employed as a mail carrier out of the Columbia Post Office for some months. Privious to that occupation he had charge of J. A. Iverson's farm. He was born at Alma Center, Wis. Oct. 6, 1892, being 26 years, 3 months and 18 days of age. He is survived by his wife and two young children; his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Gregory, of Humbird, four brothers and two sisters. One of the children of the deceased is seriously ill, and it was in helping care for the little one while he himself was ill with the flu, that caused the relapse that resulted in his death. The funeral was Sunday, Rev. L.B. Colman officiating.
