A teritfic hail storm swept over several sections of our county last week, doing considerable damage to wheat and oats, and also hurt the cotton and corn crop pretty badly. On account of the commence ment exercises the Baptist Young Peoples’ Union will meet Sunday evening at 7:30 at the Baptist church in McDonough. It is indeed with sadness that we note the death of Mr. Henry Jackson, the 18-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Jackson, which occurred at their home near Jenkinsburg last Friday night. His death was caused from an un fortunate accident which befell him Friday afternoon by the acci dental discharge of a shotgun, which caused his death in a few hours. It was an accident that is deeply deplored by all, and as he w r as the only son in tiie family it makes his death a sad one indeed, His remains were laid to rest at Jenkinsburg Sunday morning, in the presence of a large concourse of friends and relatives, after an appropriate funeral service con ducted by Rev. Wilson, Profs. Claude Gray and W. T. Smalley. It is with sadness that we note the death of Mr. J. S. Duke, which occurred at his home near Betha ny last Sunday. His death was caused by an unfortunate accident which befell him last Friday morn ing. He had started to go into the second story of a small barn building where he usually kept his wheat, etc., and m doing so he had to climb a ladder, and just as lie reached the door it is supposed he accidentally lost his balance and fell to the ground below, sus taining such injuries that he was rendered unconscious and remain ed in that condition until his death Sunday. His wife heard him fall and rushed to his assistance as quickly as possible and summoned help to gel him in the house, and everything possible was done for him, but he was so seriously in jured that he died without ever regaining consciousness. He was about 67 years of age and is sur vived by Lio companion and four daughters, Mrs. J. P. Blissitt, Mrs. P. C. Shaw, Mrs. B. S. Elliott and Mrs. E. O. Hooten, and one son, Mr. Arthur Duke, of Atlanta. He was the father-in-law of Editor B. S. Elliott, of The Weekly. He leaves a large tamiiy of relatives to mourn his death.
