BALDWIN-PERRY WEDDING The Baldwin-Perry wedding which took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H.J.

Dr. CAMBEEL (CAMBELL), DEAD Our little town was saddened this afternoon when a phone message, from Parrott, brought the intelligence of the death of Dr. A.B. Cambell which occured there about noon today. Dr Cambell has served the Baptist congregation here for the past year and a half, and while, on account of old age, he has been very feeble, he has nevertheless done a great service in our little town. For more than fifty years Dr Cambell has labored earnestly in the ministry, ranking with the most prominent ministers of Georgia, having during that time served the leading churches in the larger cities of the state. Here in Ellaville, where he did his last service in the field of labor he loved so well, the people as a whole learned to love and reverence him, and impress of this clean, christian life that was exemplified in his walk among them should and will rebound to their good for years to come. We feel that we could pay him no higher tribute than to say that his was a clean life. end # 31.
