\u201c\u2018Uncle\u2019 Alec Walker Dies at Ivy\u201d
Ivy, Va., May 12. \u2014 \u2018Uncle\u2019 Alec Walker, a much respected colored man of this district, died last Thursday night, of sheer old age, his years being calculated at about 93.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cIn slavery days, he was brought up as a house servant, which explains his always polite and respectful behavior.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cFor some forty years or so, he was sexton of St. Paul\u2019s Church, though some years ago, he was pensioned off, being no longer capable of active service.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cHe took part in all interments in the church yard, in fact frequently digging the graves. Consequently, he had an unrivalled knowledge of all places of sepulture, and their contents, and his opinion was always asked in cases of doubt as to boundaries, or other questions arising in connection therewith.
\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cIt is a matter of frequent comment, that the old generation of colored people, now fast disappearing, was a much better and more reliable lot than most of the moderns.\u201d
