His death occurred m Grady
county, when he was taken ill
with pheumonia, from which his
dear family thought. Jie , would
soon recover, but their anxious
thoughts were all in vain. For
there was another one that wjuit-

The end came June 8th, 1914,
and there was a large crowd pre
sent to see the last breath leave
him. - 5
It would be such a hard matter
to count the hearts that were
made sad when the news came
that he was dead. j.*
Mr. Mills will be so long re
membered by the noble, honest
and up right deeds done \yhile
on this earth. His good advice
always awaits those who might
ask him, and a great peace-mak
er even among the colored, he so
williugly did his best.'
On Tuesday June 9th quite a
a large crowd of sympathizing
relatives and friends gathered at
