Notforalong time has such a
wave of paignant grief swept over
this to .vi’. us .that oi: iondayaft r
ujou about I.SO o’clcck: wh©n it
was known that jNIr. Cliff C. Tye
Lau killed himself ia the store of
Messrs. T. A. Sloan and Co. No
motive is known for this rash act.
Mr. Tye walked into the store
with some money and handed it to
Mr T. A. Sloan and asked him to
give him crebit for it on his account
there, and as Mr. Sloan turned to
go to his office to give the credit
Mr. Tye drew a 32 caliber pistol
and fired into hi 3 right temple the
bnllet passing almost entirely thr
ough the head, and he fell to the
floor dead. There were several
near him who saw him pnil the
pistol but before they realized why
he shauld draw the gun from his
pocket there they were startled by
the report of the pistol and a mo
ment later they saw him fall to the
floor dead.
“Cliff Tye” as he was oalled by
his hosts of friends, was one of the
town’s most genial and affable
young men. He had a large circle
of friends all of whom deeply de
plore his untimely end. For a
year he had been the popular and
efficient assistant post master at
McDonough. He was about 36
years old.
The funeral was held from his
late home at 2 o’clock Tuesday af
ternoon and the interment was in
the family lot in the McDonough
cemetery. Rev. J. A. Simpson, of
ficiating.
He is survived by his aged mo
ther, Mrs. M. A. Tye, two brothers
Colonel John L. Tye, of Atlanta,
and Dr. Robert L Tye, of New
York City, and five sisters, Mrs. T.
A. Sloan, Mrs. Paul Turner, Mrs.
Ethel Wright and Miss Nona Tye,
of this place, and Mrs. Ludie Hen
derson of Atlanta.

Nearer, My God, To Thee.
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee !
E’en tho’ it bo a cross
That raiseth me ;
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer my God, to thee,
Tho’ like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darken ss he ovi v me,
My rtSt H/ stone,
Yet in my dreams I’d he,
Nearer my God, to thee,
Then, let the way appear,
Stops unto heav’n ;
All that thou sendest. me,
In mercy given ;
Angels to beckon me,
Nearer my God, to thee,
Or if, on joyful wing,
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
Upward I fly,
Still all my songs shall be,
Nearer, my God, to thee
