S, C, CANDLER
PASSES AWAY
Died at Clearwater, Fla. J
Remains Intened at Villa Rica
Our city and county were shocked
to hear, the first of the week, of the
death of Mr. S. C. Candler Sr., last
Monday, at his home in Clearwater,
Fla. Mr. Candler was in the 56th
year of his age, and only a few
weeks ago was mingling with his
many friends in Carrollton, Villa
Rica and Carroll county. His re
mains ware brought to Villa Rica
for interment; and last Wednesday
in the presence of a very large con
course of his friends and relatives,
funeral services were held, conduct
ed by his pastor, Rev. W. E. Dozier,
whojjpaid a high tribute to his moral
worth and Christian character. The
Masonic fraternity, of which he
whs a shining light and exemplary
member, then laid his body to rest
with the beautiful and impressive
burial rites of this most ancient or
der, Dr. J. D. Hamrick officiating as
master of ceremonies.
Mr. Candler was one of Carroll
county’s most useful and honored
citizens, and was faithful, fearless
and true in the discharge of all du
ties demanded of him. For years
he has been a faithful and consist
ent member of the Presbyterian
church. He is one of an illustrious
family, and leaves behind him five
brothers, Hon. Ezekiel Candler, of
Mississippi; Mr. W. B. Candler, of
Villa Rica; Mr. Asa G. Candler,
Bishop Warren Candler and Judge
John Candler, of Atlanta; and three
sisters, Mrs. Harris, of Atlanta; Mrs.
Dobbs, of Villa Rica, and Mrs. Wil-
hard, of Philadelphia, to cherish his
memory. He is the uncle of Hon.
C. M. Candler of the Georgia Rail
road Commission.
Mr. Candler is survived by his
wile, two sons and four daughters,
to whom, on behalf of Mr. Candler’s
hosts of friends in Carroll county
the Free Press extends its heartiest
sympathies. We are glad that his
remains found their last resting
place in his home county and
amongst the people he cherished
ad lnoved.
