Mrs J. M. Darnell died at her home
a t the State Sanitarium Thursday after
noon, after an illness of several days
with pneumonia.
Tin news of Mrs. Darnell’s death
was heard with profound sorrow in this
c jry and throughout the State, for she
was greatly beloved by all who knew
her.
Mrs. Darnell was about seventy-two
years 0 f age, and was born and grew to
womanhood in this city. She was a
daughter of I>r. John Mitchell, and a
granddaughter of Gov. Mitchell. For
twenty-nine years she had served as
matron at the state Sanitarium and
had performed a noble work in giving
relief to the suffering.
She possessed a beautiful Christian
character, which had a blessed influence
upon all who knew her. Always kind
and considerate, she quietly and unos
tentatiously contiibnted to the happi
ness and comfort of'others. She gave
lavishly to those who in their need and
distress came to tier notice.
She w r as endowed both in heart and
mind with the characteristics of the
women of the Old South, and the no
bleuess of her nature was always man
ifest.
The funeral services were held at
the Sanitarium Friday afternoon, Rev
Elam F. Dempsey officiating.
The remains were buried on the fam
ily square in the city cemetery. “God
hr* With Yon ’Til We Meet Again,”
was sweetly sung, at the grave, by a
quartette composed of Drs. Mobley,
Cranston, Yarbrough, and Mr. W. H.
Hunter.
Mrs. Darnell is survived by one sou,
Mr. A. 8. Darnell, ef Deoalar, Ala.,
and other relatives

Mr. J. L. Sibley reports two real
estate sales for the week:
Linton Fowler and Geo. P. Brantley
have purchased from Mr. H.A. Mas
sey tlho property occupied by him as
his residence and the rest of his lot
extending west to the corner of Pop
lar St., also all that section facing
on Jefferson and Poplar known as
Barrett’s row.
There aro no more-careful business
men in this community than Messrs.
Fowler and Brantley, and the fact
that these young men believe in Mil-
ledgevillo real estate means much for
the town.
It is understood that a line of sew
ers will be put in by the property
owners in that section, co-operating
with the ctiy, and the Georgia rail
road, which will need sewerage for its
new depot.
When sewer connections are made
with tho main two blocks from this
property, it wil have electric lights
sewers, water and the street railway
of the new car on the dummy line,
giving this section advantages unsur
passed if equalled by any other part
of this city.
Mr. John G. Bearden, another care
ful buyer, has purchased through J.
L. Sibley, part of the Hall es p.to from
Mrs. E. E. Humphries, In tho south-
! ern section of the county on the River
road.
This property is one of the finest
: farming sections of lie county, near
1 to church and school.
Mr. Bearden always improves any
land that he owns, and It is believed
that h« will soon be taking hid friends
out to see his fine crops.
