R.H. SLAPPEY In the death of Reuben H. Slappey, which occured in our little city Sunday night the county lost one of it's ablest and most highly respected citizens, and a devoted family of three sons and two daughters are thus deprived of the love and sweet companionship of a most indulgent, sympathetic father. For more than fifty years Mr. Slappey had been identified with the county's every interest, having moved here in 1856. At the age of 22, he was married to Miss Mary Stewart of Sumter county, and no happier a union was ever formed which was of perpetual existence until the death of his good wife at Americus, Georgia several years ago. It was our good fortune to know Mr. Slappey since our early childhood, thus it is easy for us, in our humble way, to here bespeak our greatest admiration for the man he was, and the pure, clean and polished life he lived. He was a Southern Gentleman of the purest ray. In point of natural ability, culture and intellect, but few men surpassed him. Yet, with all these superior attainments, and having been many times urged to enter the political field, he ever preferred the life of a private citizen, feeling that his highest and noblest duty was to constantly scatter sunshine in the home he so much cherished. For more than 30 years, he was steward in the Methodist church, being one of it's most liberal supporters. Funeral services were very impressively conducted by Rev. C.A. Norton at the home, Tuesday morning, the body being carried thence to Americus, and upon arrival at that place was met by a large number of prominent citizens, the following acting as pallbearers: Messrs. P.H. Williams, Jim Wilson, George Oliver, Chas. Williams, and Lee Council. He was buried at the side of his wife in Oak Grove cemetery.

Battle, Schley county's oldest and most widely known citizen passed to the great beyond on last Sunday night. Judge Battle has been a prominent factor in Schley since the formation of this county more than fifty years ago, having served the county nobly and with credit to himself many times in an official capacity, and always in a most demeanable manner as a private citizen. He was the father of 9 children, six of whom are now living. In spite of the ninety four years that had been so graciously granted him, he was cheerful, active and useful up to the time he was taken to his bed. His service to the Baptist church which had been for more than sixty years, was indeed one of true devotion and full activity, ever supporting the institution both with his purse and by acts of loving deeds. He was extremely fond of the Masonic Order, having been an active Mason for more than sixty years. In deeds of charity and in the watchfulness of his loved ones, the principles of this great order was largely exemplified in his daily life. He was a friend with all whom he met. His companions were numbered among the young as well as men of his own age. His greatest force of character was honesty. So many times we have heard him rejoice in the assertion that he had lived nearly a hundred years old and owed no man. As an evidence of the high esteem in which the people of this and surrounding counties held him could only be measured by the great tribute paid him at the funeral services held at the Baptist church on last Monday afternoon, it being impossible for more than half the people to gain entrance to the church. Rev. O.P. Gilbert, of Americus, in the course of his remarks paid some very high tributes to the useful life that had ended, all of which was highly appropriate in view of Judge Battle's long career. His body was laid to rest in the Ellaville cemetery with Masonic Honors.

Several years ago he began life at Fitzgerald, engaging in the lumber business, at which he had met with much success. He was only 29 years of age, rendering it very hard indeed for his relatives and friends to become reconciled to his death.
