GEN. DOWLING, GRAY VET., LAST IN SOLDIERS HOME, DEAD
Gen. William Henry Taylor Dowling, 99 year old Confederate veteran, lost a gallant battle with death yesterday.
The "General," last veteran living at the Georgia Confederate Soldiers Home, died in a local hospital after a 10 day fight with pneumonia. He would have been 100 years old in January.
Funeral services will be conducted at 3 PM today at the Moreland Avenue Church of Christ, with Rev. W.D. McPherson officiating. Burial will be at 1230 PM tomorrow in the Manchester Cemetery.
The General was a lad of 16 when he marched out of Lowndes County to join the Confederate Army. He wasn't a general then. "I was too young; just a private," he once said. But he became a "general" three years ago, a full 80 years after the conclusion of "The War of Northern Aggression," when he was elected Commander in Chief of The United Confederate Veterans at their annual reunion in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Gen. Dowling lived in Valdosta after the war, and married Miss Georgia Hayes. He was a farmer and Church of Christ minister, serving many small churches around Valdosta.
"He was a great singer in his younger years," said Mrs. Lora Slote, the General's daughter. "He always loved pretty singing and pretty girls."
Gen. Dowling moved from Valdosta to Manchester, where he lived 22 years, and lived in Griffin a few years before coming to the Confederate Soldiers Home seven years ago.
Only two Confederate veterans are left in Georgia now. They are W.J. Bush, 103, of Fitzgerald, and W.J. Brown of Carrolton, who declined to give his age, but who must be pushing the 100 year mark.
There are 13 Confederate widows living in the Soldiers Home, and 700 throughout the state.
