Mrs. C. C. Fargason
Succumbs to Death.
One of the saddest deaths re
corded in Henry county in the
passing years was that of Mrs. C.
C. Fargason, which occurred at
the home of her husband in Mc-
Mullens district, at F o’clock last
Saturday night, after an illness of
a few days.
Mrs. Fargason was endowed
with the graces and attractions of
a noble womanhood, which drew
to her a circle of warm friends
by whom she will be deeply missed
and mourned. She is survived
by her husband, Mr. Charlie Far
gason, one little son aged 8, and
daughter aged 6 years, to whom
tenderest sympathy goes out.
Fuqeral services were held at
11 o’clock Monday morning, con
ducted by Rev. H. C. Emory, and
the remains laid to rest in Tur
ner’s church cemetery.
