MRS. J. S. COURTNEY.
Mrs. Sarah Matthews Courtney died
Sunday morning at 11 o’clock at the
Ameiicus and Sumter County hospi
tal. The funeral was held Monday af
ternoon from the family residence on
Oglethorpe avenue at 4 o’clock, with
Rev. Guyton Fisher, pastor of First
Methodist church, assisted by Rev.
Henry T. Brookshire, of the Central
Baptist church.
The pallbearers were Howell
Smith, A. C- Perry, S. L. McDaniel,
Stanley Burton, D. R. Andrews and
Glisson Roach.
Surviving relatives are her hus
band, J. S. Courtney, of Savannah;
her parents, Mr. and Mrs. L. S. Mat
thews, of Americus; two sisters, Mrs.
Charles C. Smith, of Americus, and
Mrs. James Rittenberry, of Macon;
and three brothers, George L. Mat
thews, R. L. Matthews and J. W.
Matthews, of this city.
Interment was in Oak Grove ceme
tery. The floral offerings were
many and beautiful.
Mrs. Courtney was only 23 years
of age and had been ill for the past
two years, her illness developing crit
ical complications about a week ago
at her home in Savannah, from which
place she was brought to Americus
for treatment at the hospital here.
Medical skill was of no avail, and
death came as a relief to her suffer
ings.
Mrs. Courtney had spent almost her
entire life in this community, where
she was universally known and loved
for her many beautiful traits of
character. She was a student in the
schools of the city, having made a
splendid record, enjoying the love
and esteem of the faculty and student
body. Two years ago she was mar
ried from her home here and went to
reside in Savannah.
. Her death has cast a pall of sad
ness over the entire city and many
friends attended the funeral services
to pay their last tribute of love to
her who had spent her young life in
their midst.
