Wm. Ruel Bain - May 28, 1999
I attended the Rodgers Reunion near Waco earlier this month and visited with several of the cousins including Edwin Brownlow. Edwin was told Rosilla Sanders Bain was Choctaw. He was asked if this could have meant Rosilla's mother in law, Mary Boland, and he said he was certain he had been told it was Rosilla that was Indian.
Edwin also told this story about Peter during the war. Because he was a good shot Peter was in charge of hunting for food for the 12 men in his unit. One day he only killed 11 squirrels and shot a wood rat to make up the difference in what was needed. He dressed the rat like the squirrels and put it with the rest of the meat. According to Edwin none of the others knew they may have eaten rat. My Grandfather, Oscar, hunted with Peter many times in Arkansas and Oklahoma. In one of the few stories he told us about Peter, he said Peter would be annoyed if you didn't hit the squirrel in the eye because you were ruining some of the meat. Once while they were hunting west of Valliant they shot a squirrel that fell into a pool or creek below the tree. This was winter but Peter had Grandpa go in and get the squirrel.
In one of Peter's visits to his daughter's family at Waco one of the girls cooking breakfast for Peter was worried about how to cook his eggs. He told them if they cooked them too hard he would put butter on them to soften them, and if they cooked them too soft he would put butter on them to harden them. I think he liked butter on his eggs.

Here is the obit for Rev. John L. Brown (Sarah Alonzia Elizabeth Rogers Madewell's grandfather, A.W.'s wife):

This is from the Christian Advocate:

Rev. John L. Brown fell asleep in Jesus December 12, 1898 at the home of his son-in-law and daughter, Jackson and Eliza T. Brown, near Richland, Navarro County, Tex., where he has been living for the last six years. He was born in Warren county, Tenn., May 5, 1809. He professed religion and joined the M.E.Church, South, at seventeen years of age. At the age of twenty-eight he was licensed to preach, under the presiding eldership of Rev. John Sherrell; was ordained deacon October 17, 1852, by Bishop Joshua Soule, at Pulaski, Tenn; and elder October 24, 1858, by Bishop James Osgood Andrew, at McMinnville, Tenn. He preached for about forty-seven years, and was faithful to all the doctrines and usages of Methodism. Though local, he would often relieve the preachers in charge and go their rounds, while they went home or were sick. In revivals he went far and near. He never fled before the enemy. His preaching was plain, earnest, and practical. Anything that he could not adjust to the word of God was with him but chaff. He was a great lover of the CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE. He was married to Sarah Taylor. To them were born thirteen children. All but four have preceded him. His wife preceded him by ten years to the good world. His firstborn still survives him, though sixty-odd years old. He has thirty-six great-grandchildren, the most of whom live in Texas, where he died. His daughter Eliza and her husband endeavored to make his life pleasant and happy. He offtimes expressed his delight with Texas and the tender care for him the last six years of his life. Often would he say that there was but one thing that troubled him, that was he would rather be buried by his wife at Beech Grove in Alabama. That made but little difference, as he would be with her in heaven. He loved the Texas preachers: Brothers M.B. McKinney, F.M. Winburn, G.J. Irving and others. Our present preacher he never saw, but he held an impressive service at the grave. On the night of his departure, about one o'clock, he held out his hand, and said: "Good-by; don't grieve after me. I am going to a better home over yonder." A few minutes before the last he rose up in bed and told his daughter to fix him a soft pillow to die on. She adjusted the pillow, he lay down on the edge of it, and in a moment said, "Now, Lord, take me easy." and his life was gone. Not a struggle, not a frown; all was over. "Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his."

We, his children, who have cared for him in his last years, want to say to his many friends and relatives, especially in Tennessee, that if we ever meet him again we will have to live in this life above reproach. God help us all so to do!

JACKSON AND ELIZA T. BROWN.
