Mr. Charlie McCullar
“When the last trump shall sound,
we shall all,be changed in the twink
ling of an eye, and death shall be
swallowed up in victory! OhhDeath,
where is thy sting? Oh! grave.where
is thy victory?’’
The death of Mr Charlie McCul
lar, of Gordon, on Friday, January
21, j-927, came as a distinct shock to
his beloved family and many, many
frien Is throughout different sections
of this state.
M r McCullar was born and reared
in M ilkinson county, loved and re
vete Iby all who knew him. He was
a great church worker, being a mem
ber < f the Baptist church. At the
time of his death Mr McCullar was
forty one years of age.
It can be said of him in all truth
and sincerity that when his hand was
extended to a friend, or even to a
stranger, it was the clasp of brotherly
love .ml good fellowship that that
friend or stranger felt. Alwavs he
had a kind word and a smile for
those whom he knew.
Lw u 3 say a few words to the be
reaved family: Dear friends, we
knov. this is your irreparable loss, we
know you shall miss him sorely, but.
we k tow, also, that it is his great
gain. Bo bear up and meet the trials
of this life bravely- Let us all strive
to lead, as he led, lives of faith, hope,
and charity, then when the time shall
come for us to go Home let us be
prepared to go as in Thanatopsis:
