Tazewell, Va, Sept 21. - The town was grieved and shocked this morning by the announcement of that Will Henry Alderson, one of the most prominent and popular young citizens of the town, had been found dead in his bed.
Mr Alderson has suffered from heart trouble, but his condition had never given alarm to his friends and he retired to his room Sunday night in his usual health. When called to breakfast this morning he failed to respond and an investigation revealed the terrible intelligence of his death.
Mr Alderson was born in this town 31 years ago. He was a son of Major Henry C Alderson and wife, and unmarried. His life had been spent in the town, where he was known and loved by everybody. He was a young man of splendid mind and generous heart.
A sister, Mrs V L Sexton, resides at Graham.
The funeral will take place tomorrow from the Episcopal church.
