Alexander of this place. The body was brought to Jacksonville by his sorrowing wife on Wednesday's train and after appropriate ceremonies at the St. Luke's church, were interred in the cemetery here. For more than a year he had suffered with an affliction of the throat or lungs which rapidly grew worse until it terminated in his death. Thinking that a change of climate might benefit him, some weeks ago he left his family here and went to the home of his sister in Cedartown. A short while back the news reached here that he was rapidly growing worse. His faithful wife at once hastened to his side and nursed him until he breathed his last. Both she and a little sister who lived with him and the little children he leaves behind, have the heartfelt sympathy of our entire community.
