Schley County GaArchives Obituaries.....Pilcher, Anna Tison November 3, 1894 ************************************************ Copyright.

Pilcher and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geo Tison, died at her home in Ellaville at twelve o'clock Saturday night surrounded by her sorrowing family and friends. For several days she was seriously ill and her death was not unexpected. Saturday evening realizing fully that the end was near, she called her loved ones about her bedside and talked calmly and peacefully of her approaching dissolution. She looked across the dark river and caught glimpses of the "heavenly hills" and as the cold waves were closing about her, with radiant face she exclaimed: "if this is death, how sweet to die." Her beautiful words of perfect trust and resignation comfort the sorely bereaved hearts, for they feel that with her "all is well." Mrs. Pilcher was a consistent member of the Baptist church. Her heart was always filled with kindly thoughts, and her sunny nature gathered around her many friends. She leaves two children too young to understand the! awful mystery that robs them of a mother's tender care. As friends were preparing to carry the body to the grave, a telegram came from Buena Vista bearing the sad news that Mr. Scoville had died the night before. The remains were brought down on the two o'clock train accompanied by the family of the deceased, their pastor Rev. D.F. Riley and many sympathizing friends. Preparations were made to have the two funerals from the baptist church at the same hour and at four o'clock a large crowd assembled and acred silence rested on all as the coffins covered with flowers were borne up the isles side by side while the choir sang softly "Home Sweet Home." Dr. Griffin read an appropriate scripture lesson and his remarks were full of hope and consolation as he bore a pastor's testimony to the genuineness and sincerity of Mrs. Pilcher's good works. Rev. D.F. Riley made a tender and touching talk. At the close of his remarks Rev. .F. Williamson with deep feeling prayed for the s! tricken hearts, and the choir sang "How Firm a Foundation." It was a solemn and impressive service and can never be forgotten. The ceremony at the cemetery was short and simple, and at its conclusion the immense crowd slowly and sadly dispersed. The two families so sadly bereaved have the universal sympathy of our people.

G. BUNYAN WEAVER A gloom was cast over our town by the announcement of the death of Mr. G.B. Weaver, which sad event occurred at his residence near Shiloh, Friday. He had been ill with slow fever for several weeks but his friends hoped that his splendid constitution could withstand the ravages of the disease. Mr. Weaver was well known in this section. He taught school in Ellaville for a year and was also engaged in the merchantile business here a few years ago. He possessed in a high degree all the essential elements of good citizenship and no one ever doubted his genuine piety. He "committed his way unto the Lord" and in that higher life to which he has passed is reaping the reward that awaits the faithful. For the young wife and four orphan children upon whom this blow has fallen with such startling and crushing force, the deepest sympathy is felt by our people.

Cato was taken from them. Like the closing of a sensitive plant was the brief life of this precious child. Too delicate to keep, too pure to stay, God loaned her to earth and loved ones only about 22 months. For one so young to listen to reason as she did, was wonderful indeed, she was remarkable intelligent. Possessing a gentile spirit, her very presence gave forth the fragrance of love. She was the light and life of the home now left to darkness and gloom. Her baby voice was lute like in ?iss tones and stole into the heart like music filling the house with joy. Her little feet were busy going from one member of the family to another--making an equal distribution of her affection--with the tendrils of such love wound around the hearts of her loved ones, we know it was hard. Oh! so hard! to say, "Father thy will be done," but even now a rainbow is shining through their tears, for they know their jewel is safe in the arms of Jesus and with her little beckoning hands beyond the river, the way is brighter.

Schley-Randolph-Warren County GaArchives Obituaries.....Devane, Susannah June 14, 1894 ************************************************ Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/copyright.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ga/gafiles.htm ************************************************ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Harris Hill http://www.rootsweb.com/~archreg/vols/00011.html#0002514 December 26, 2005, 12:46 pm The Schley County News Thursday, July 19, 1894 IN MEMORY OF MRS. SUSANNAH DEVANE By Z.F.P. The subject of this sketch was born in Warren county, Ga., Sept. 20th 1825 and died in Randolph county, June 14, 1894. The writer had only known Mrs. Devane a few years, yet we can truthfully say that she was a good woman always having a kind word for each and every one with whom she came in contact, and conducting herself in such manner that one could not help feeling the blessed influence of her presence. But she is gone, and we know that God in his wisdom "doeth all things well." We would say to the sorrowing family that while it is sad for us to part with a kind and loving mother, yet when you think of her, feel assured that she is a shinning light in the window of heaven. Think of her walking the golden streets of the new Jerusalem, where her feet will never grow weary, where she is free from all pain, sickness and sorrow, her head pillowed on our blessed Savior's breast. It is hard for us to give up those we love, but we must bend in meek submission to our Father's chastening hand. In human weekness we cannot understand, but after a while, when all things are revealed we will know why it is thus--God knows best. The writer having tasted the sorrow of loosing a loving mother, feels too deeply the loss you sustain to touch with other than a tender sympathetic hand the wound of sorrow. Mrs. Devane was in the sixty ninth year of her age. In her early life she professed faith in Christ and joined the M.E. church, and during all these years was a bright and shining light. As a christian she exemplified in her long and useful life those graces which proved to the world that she walked with God. As a mother, she was kind, loving and gentle, ever looking to the best interest of her children, and striving by precept and example to lead them in the way of rightousness. As a friend and neighbor, she was all these words imply. But she is gone from cares and afflictions of earth to join her sainted husband who preceeded her to the grave a few years before, and other loved ones in the home of the blest, where parting is unknown. Her body was interred in the cemetery at Rehobeth, Rev. R.B. Taylor performing the funeral rites. She leaves a large family of children and many friends and relatives with whom we deeply sympathize in this their saddest hour. On the beautiful banks of the crystal sea, Forever free from sorrow and pain; We hope to meet you dear mother, Where parting will never come again. Spotless and pure from all earthly stain, Never in erring paths to rove; Thou art safe in the better land, Safe in the bosom of infinite love. We know thy feet never seemed weary, When others steps they could spare; We know thy hands were always busy, Lightening others loads of care. Oh! dear mother the toilsome journey, Now is mostly over and past. And the glimpse of heaven you gave us Will be part of heaven at last.

Myers fell dead upon the street in front of Cheney & Co's Drug store Monday evening at 7 o'clock. For several days he complained of not feeling well but no one apprehended anything serious and his death was a terrible shock. Dr. Cheney was one of the first to reach him and saw at once that life was extinct though many hoped that it was only a fainting spell and made every effort to restore animation. Mr. Myers was one of the most popular men in the county and had he not been the victim of drink might have been one of the most useful men. He was 55 years of age and had been many times honored with public trust. For seventeen years he was sherriff and at one time represented this county in the Legislature. He was at the time of his death serving his second term as Ordinary. Uniformly kind and courteous, he won the esteem of all. To the orphan nieces left to his charge, he acted the part of the tender loving father. No one but God knows what a good brother he was to me, sobbed the broken hearted sister, at whose house he found home, and love and encouragement. No word of reproach ever escaped his lips, and no matter how far he wandered, her arms were always about him. Her devotion was beautiful. No one deplored his weakness more than did the unfortunate man. Only last week he wept bitterly as he reviewed his life and realized that he had gone too far to ever redeem his manhood. But he was firm in his determination to give up drink, and the effort cost him his life. It may be that the high resolve to break the chains that bound him was but an answer to the ceaseless prayers of those who loved him. Let us hope that the poor weak, erring soul, struggling in the grasp of a power too strong for human aid, breathed a prayer to heaven: "Other refuge have I none Hangs my helpless soul on thee, Leave, oh leave me not alone." It needed but this to bring the pitying savior, to lift him up to be with Him in Paradise. A very large concourse of friends followed the remains to their last resting place, and the church bells never tolled a sadder funeral. It was the grave of blighted hope, and love and joy and promise of bright ambition drowned in the wine cup. His life and death is a sermon may it prove a warning to those who have just started on the road to ruin and a beacon light to show them the jagged rocks in the awful abyss. The tenderest sympathy is felt for the bereaved. (Transcriber's note: Thomas B. Myers served as a private in Co. G, 5th Ga. Inf., The Schley Guards, enlisting May 11, 1861 and surrendering at Greensboro, N.C., April 25, 1865.)

The wedding was a quiet affair, only the immediate relatives of the family, the attendants and ushers being present. The bride is well known to our people and has many friends here, and was universally admired. The groom is said to be a most excellent gentleman and we join the bride's friends in extending congratulations. Additional Comments: This marriage took place in morthern Schley Co., near the Taylor Co. line as that was the location of Mr. L.A. Gilles home. The marriage is recorded in Taylor county records. It is recorded in Taylor as occuring on the 12th of November 1893. Perhaps this was the day the license was procurred?
