Charles was also a one time teacher, and always interested in educating the youth of his own family and those of the town of Louisville. He was a blacksmith, mill owner, one time county treasurer of Winston County, MS., Master Mason and devoted member of the Louisville Baptist Church.
This obituary of Charles Cagle appeared in the Winston County Journal, January, 1908:
" Death of a Prominent Citizen...Mr. Charles H. Cagle Passes Away Monday Night."
" Mr. Chas H. Cagle died at his home in our town Monday night, January 13th, 1908, at exactly 8:00.
While he had been in feeble health for several months, he he was active for one of his years up to a few years prior to his demise.
His last trouble was something like pnuemonia or congestion of the lungs, and he died as though going to sleep without a perceptible struggle.
He was in his 83rd year, and was one of our counties oldest and best known citizens. He was a gallant Confederate soldier, served our county very efficiantly as treasurer for one or two terms, and was one of the most devoted members of the Baptist church and Masonry that we have ever known.
In fact, the Louisville lodge and church never had a more devoted member, he having served this lodge in an official capacity up to his death, and beyond where he was really able to physically able to attend it's meetings.
He was charitable to a degree, always ready with hand and purse to aid the distressed. He had no enemies, being a man of jovial disposition. He was loved and respected by all who knew him.
While, like all men, he may have had his minor faults, yet he never harmed his fellow man, but on the other hand, we have no doubt bet that he aided and assisted as many men in his active days as any man who ever lived in our county.
He raised a large family, and showed great intrest in educating them all, and no doubt (words illegible) the largest family (words illegible) of any (words illegible) in our county.
His remains were laid to rest in the Masonic Hall cemetery with Masonic honors in the presence of friends and relatives. Reverands Nett and Hail assisted in the services.
Peace be to his ashes."
