Jackson Argus – Week of November 19, 1896
Emmet Witaker

One of the brightest young men in this county died in Atlanta last Sunday under
the effects of chloroform, while having a surgical operation performed.   Mr.
Emmet Whitaker was treated for a sore on his ankle by a so-called specialist
from Macon, and the bone of his leg was injured by the medicine used, which made
it necessary for partial amputation, under which operation he died as stated
above.  Mr. Whitaker was a noble young man and was just entering the arena of a
profitable career.   His father, Mr. J. F. Whitaker, has worked hard to educate
and care for Emmett and his other motherless children.    Emmet was the oldest
child and of course had gotten to be very useful to his father.   He will be
missed by the entire community.
