Death of Mrs.
A. V. Glover.
Our sister Mrs. A. A’. Glover, of
| Brunswick died suddenly .Sunday
night about midnight. She lmd
| been in bad health for two years,
and had a sudden attack of heart
failure. She died peacefully and
without a struggle, although she
had been a great sufferer for two
years. As Providence had decreed
that she he taken from us when she
was, we feel profoundly grateful
that at the time of her dissolution
she passed off quietly and seeming
ly without pain. She bore patient
ly and without complaint, and with
a superb confidence in the future,
all the intense suffering placed upon
her during the last two years of her
earthly existence.
Her gentle nature, kind and
merry disposition made her the
friend of childhood and favorite of
tnc young. We have known her to
abandon herself to the innocent
sports of children and the gay con
versation of the young, when at in
tervals amid their covcrsation or
laughter, her face would twitch with
pain.
It is with the profoundest. grati
tude that we extend to the magnan
imous people of Brunswick our
heartfelt thanks for. their innumer
able kindness during her last illness.
It seemed that they could not do
enough for her. They ministered
to her day and night and when stu
died buried her “beneath a Wilder
ness ©f flowers'.
Mrs. Glover leaves two sons, T.
E. and Jack Glover, of Brunswick,
Two sisters Mrs. E. L. Hays, of
Meridian, Miss., and Mrs. B. H.
Mayo, of Atlanta and two brothers,
Dr. E. M. Bailey of Acworth, Ga.

A Card of Thanf^s
I am grateful indeed to the good
people of Pulaski county for their
very kind treatment to me; in that
they so generously and readily gave
me their support for County School
Commissioner.
I feel good towards every man,
woman and child in this county,
and in this good feeling let us go
forth to higher heights of success
than has been yet attained. To do
this we must build on the sure
foundation of education, bearing in
mind always, that to accomplish
anything of this nature we must
work in co-operation.
Again 1 thank you for your sup
port and confidence.
Yours to Serve,
F. B. A shell.
