F. M. (Tuck) Hill, 79, a survivor of the famous Quantell band, died here last night. He has lived in Collin County for more than fifty years and has been grand marshal of the Confederate reunion at practically every one that has been held in the county. Born in Kentucky, Hill followed the South in the war between the States, and he identified himself with the cavalry forces of Quantrell. He was one of the most dashing riders of the crowd. In 1865 his command, the last of the Confederates, surrendered, and Hill, after a short stay in Missouri, came to Texas and settled in Collin County. Captain Hill was acquainted with Cole Younger and the James boys. He is survived by his wife. ===========================================================================
