  DEATH: "MOULTON ADVERTISER", Printed January 31, 1905, Moulton, Lawrence County, Alabama (Written by the father of Elverton V. Shelton, Martin V. Shelton) ANGELS AFTER HIM Pitt, Lawrence County, Alabama Dear Mr. White of the Moulton Advertiser, Sir, I will write a few lines in regard to the death of my son, Elverton Shelton, who died 9th of Jan. Was taken sick the first-- lived 9 days. Was a good moral boy; left good evidence; three days before his death he called to his brothers and told them to "watch the Angels coming in at the window". He said they were coming to carry him home. He was in his right mind all the time. When death comes we must go, leaving all here below. Let's live Christian lives and we will not dread to cross over to the other shore. He was 23 years, 4 months, and 9 days old. Father
