John White Shipman, who served with Company F, 6th Alabama Cavalry, passed into the great beyond on September, 13, 1922. He was a man of God from his youth, and had been an elder in the Pea River and Clio (Ala.) Presbyterian Churches since 1888-a pious, just, temperate, and sincere gentleman. He was laid to rest in the Pea River Cemetery' near the church he had served so faithfully. Comrade Shipman was born November 6, 1844, and married Mrs. Jennie Wallace Newberry, and of this union three children were born. In his home he was a devoted husband and father, and in his community an honored citizen.
