Address Box 402, Griffin, Georgia. 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. “Standard” and “New Home” machines most popular because of known value —no others like them—no others as good.
