Jim Turner Killed

James Turner, formerly of this place, was ran over and killed by an engine 
on the Western & Atlantic railway in Atlanta, on Monday night last about 9 
o'clock, while attempting to cross the track.  He was horribly cut up and 
almost unrecognizable when found.  Mr. Turner and his family spent the 
Christmas holidays in this county, and on Monday evening he had returned to 
Atlanta to resume work at Hunnicutt & Bellingrath's.  He was about 35 years 
old, son of B. H. Turner, of this place, and nephew of Senator and Judge 
Brown.  He married Miss Mattie Langston and by her had six children-five of 
whom are now living with their mother.  His remains were brought to this 
place and interred in the town cemetery yesterday morning.  We deeply 
sympathize with the bereaved in the sudden and unexpected death of Mr. 
Turner.  He had many noble traits of character.
