of Acworth and well known through
out this and adjoining states, dliedl
Monday morning at nine o’clock, in a
sanitarium in Atlanta, six days afterl
an operation for tumor. |
The remains were brought to Ac

the Presbyterian church, conducted by
Rev. E. D. Patton, were interred in the
city cemetery, in the presence of one
of the largest number of citizens ever
assembled there on a like occasion.
Mr. Abbott is survived, besides his
widow, by five children, Mr. Walter L.
Abbott, of Acworth; Mr. Joe Abbott,
of Marietta; Mr. Jack Abbott, of Til
ton; Mrs. Nathan Thompson, of Wa
lesca, and Mrs. Paul Martin, of Tilton.
Mr. Abbott had resided in Acworth
since quite a young man, being engag
ed in the mercantile business. He
served his home c¢ity as postmaster
during the last Cleveland administra
tion, since which time he has been the
traveling representative of a large fer
tilizer company of Nashville.
Mr. Abbott was sixty-four years old
at the time of his death. At the age
of seventeen, he entered the service
of the Confederate army and served
the last two years of the war, making
a loyal and brave solqier.
Mr. Abbott was twice married, his
first wife, the mother of the children
surviving him, being Miss Cotton, of
Powder Springs. Subsequent toc her
death, which occurred about seven
years ago, he was married to Miss
Strange, of Chattooga county.
There are many to mourn Mr. Ab
bott’s death. His was a genial, sunny
nature, warm heasted and loyal to his
friends, and will be sorely missed in
his accustomed walks.
