Death of Dr. Flournoy.
Dr. J. A. Flournoy, one of the
oldest citizens of Fort Valley,died
suddenly last Sunday at his home
in that city. The cause is said
to have been heart-failure. Of
his death a Fort Valley correspon
dent writes:
“While not very well, he had
been up and able to attend to bus
iness to the last. About 6:80
this morning he arose and began
dressing, when he was suddenly
taken with a severe pain in his
side and called his wife to help
him back to bed Almost before
he was covered in bed he died.”
Dr. Flournoy was 75 years old,
was born at Oulloden, Monroe
county, and moved to Fort Val
ley direotly after the civil war.
He was well-known throughout
the community, and esteemed for
his integrity and devotion to his
convictions.
Two sons and two daughters
survive him, and with these and
other relatives their friends sin
cerely sympathise in this time of
their sorrow.
