DEATH OF MR. *
JOHN F. RISH
Was Formerly a Citizen of Urquhart
District of Early County.
Donalsonville, Ga., April 1. —Donal-
sonville was saddened. 1 yesterday
morning by the death of Mr. John
F. Rish, one of the oldest and most
highly respected citizens of this com
munity. Mr. Rish had made his
home in Donalsonville many years,
living here with his son-in-law, Mr.
T. J. Shingler, Sr. The only sur
viving members of his immediate
family are one daughter, Mrs. Lee
Hancock, of Birmingham, Ala., and
ones on, Mr. H. A. Rish, of lola,
Fla. He leaves, however, a large
number of grandchildren and great
grandchildren in the Rish. Stuckey
and Shingler families.
MY. Rish was nearing his 87th
birthday at the time of his death,
but, In spite of his years, he had
been an active man up to a few
years ago, though for the last few
years his friends and family have
watched the step grow more feeble
and the mind became less active as
the weight of years bore down upon
him. While it was known that he
could not last much longer, yet It is
with genuine sorrow that his family
and friends give him up now. All
who knew him loved him, and his
life has been well spent in doing
good.
Mr. Rish wa3 for many years a
citizen of the Urquhart district of
Early county and for a few years re
sided in Blakely until his children
married, after which he moved to
Donalsonville. The passing of “Uncle
John,” as he was familiarly called,
will bring regret to his old neighbors
and friends who still survive in this
section.

let, both of which were splendidly
carried out.
Members of the Springfield Sab

program.
Pastor R. E. Zachert, who has
charge of all four of the churches
mentioned, had reason to feel proud
of the handsome manner in which
his people rallied in making the day
a success. The crowd overtaxed the
little church building and many gath
ered around the doors and windows.
There were a dozen or more Blake
ly people present, and Rev. Spencer
B. King made a three-minute ad

CAN T DO THE WORK
It’s too much to try to work every
day against a constant, dull back
ache, or sudden darting pain in the
small of the back. Try Doan’s Pills.
Your neighbors recommend them. Ask
your neighbor!
Mrs. A. J. Pipkin, 354 Flowers
St., Blakely, says: “My kidneys act
ed too often at times and again
they were sluggish and inactive. I
had dizzy spells and headaches.
Specks floated before my eyes and
affected my sight at times. It was
hard for me to keep up with my
work, for my back was lame and
weak. When I stooped to dust, a
catch seized me through my kid
neys. I began using Doan’s Pills
and in a short time I was entirely
relieved of the trouble. This will
confirm my statement of 1918.”
Price, 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get

Pipkin had. Foater-Mllburn Company,
