MRS BIBB DAVIS 
   DIED WEDNESDAY

The Remains Were Brought 
  To Athens and Interred 
  In Oconee Cemetery 


The many friends of Mrs. Bibb Davis were grieved to learn of her death 
Wednesday morning at the home of her sister in East Point, GA. 

Mrs. Davis had been ill for some time and for the past few weeks of her life 
had been at one of the hospitals in Atlanta.  A few days since she suffered 
from a paralysis of the throat and her condition was seen to be very serious. 

Tuesday Mrs. Davis was removed to the home of her sister in East Point, where 
she died a short while later. 

The remains of Mrs. Davis were brought to Athens Wednesday afternoon for 
interment and were laid to rest  in Oconee cemetery by the side of her 
husband, the late Dr. B. Bibb Davis, of this city. 

The remains were met at the Seaboard depot by quite a number of friends and 
were carried at once to the cemetery where the funeral services were 
conducted.  The casket was borne to the grave by the pallbearers, Messers.  R. 
C. Orr, E. D. Sledge, James Barrow, John Gerdine, J. H. Dozier and T. F. 
Green.  At the grave the funeral services  were conducted by Rev. Troy  
Beatty, rector of Emmanuel church, in a most solemn and impressive manner, 
after which the body was tenderly and lovingly laid to rest.
