Mrs. J. T. HcClain Passes
Away.
It is sad to chronicle the death of
Mrs. J. T. McClain. She had been
in feeble health for a long time, but
always had a cheery greeting for
her friends as she met them. For
the past few months she had been
a great sufferer from rheumatism,
and had been confined to her home.
She showed marked improvement
from the painful attack of rheuma
tism, but within the past few weeks
other troubles developed which baf
fled the skill of her physician, and
Monday night, surrounded by her
loved ones, she passed into the
world beyond the grave. She had
been a resident of this city many
years and had made a large number
of friends. She had been a music
teacher for a long while and drew
close to her the pupils under her
care. She was a member of the
Methodist church, but owing to
her feeble health did not attend
services often.
'Pile funeral services were con
duct u at County Line church bv
Rev. R. C. Cleckler, and the re
mains interred by her father. She
leaves her husband, Judge J. T.
McClain; two sons, Mr. Will Mc-
Clain of Macon, and Mr. Klwytt
McClain of Savannah, and one
sister, Mrs. Stewart of Cedartowu,
all of whom were with her in her
last days. Her music class attend
ed the funeral in a body as a last
tribute of love.
