SOUTHWEST GEORGIAN OCT 28 1913
ALMOST SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. R.A. COLEMAN SHOCKS CREDILLE MILL COMMUNITY
ONE OF THE SADDEST DEATHS THAT HAS OCCURRED IN THIS LOCALITY IN RECENT YEARS 
WAS THAT OF MR. ROBERT COLEMAN, WHICH OCCURRED AT HER HOME NEAR CREDILLE’S 
MILL AT 430 OCLOCK LATE MONDAY MORNING.  SHE HAD BEEN ILL ONLY ABOUT A DAY AND 
A HALF, HAVING SUFFERED A VIOLENT ATTACK ON SATURDAY EVENING AT 9 OCLOCK WHEN 
HER HUSBAND AWOKE AND DISCOVERED HER IN THE THROES OF A VIOLENT CONVULSION.  
SHE WAS UNCONSCIOUS AND REMAINED IN THAT CONDITION UNTIL DEATH RELIEVED HER.
IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CONCLUSION OF A FUNERAL SERVICE CONDUCTED AT THE 
GRAVESIDE BY REV H.N. MASSEY AND REV. H. C. BBREWTON OF THIS CITY, THE REMAINS 
WERE INTERRED IN THE METHVIN BURIAL GROUND, QUITMAN COUNTY, LATE MONDAY 
AFTERNOON.  THE FUNERAL WAS QUITE LARGELY ATTENDED A NUMBER OF LADIES AND 
GENTLEMEN GOING FROM FT. GAINES.
MRS. COLEMAN WAS ONLY 31 YEARS OLD.  PRIOR TO HER MARRIAGE TO R.A. COLEMAN 
ABOUT TEN YEARS AGO SHE WAS MISS ARTIE KING, YOUNGEST DAUGHTER OF THE LATE 
ERASMUS KING OF THIS COUNTY.  FOUR LITTLE CHILDREN—THREE BOYS AND A GIRL ARE 
BEREFT OF THEIR MOTHER.  NUMBEROUS OTHER RELATIVES SURVIVE AMONG THESE BEING 
THE HUSABAND AND THREE SISTERS AND TWO BROTHERS NAMELY; MRS. M.A. LOKEY A.T. 
KING AND J.E. KING, ALL OF THIS COUNTY;  MRS. JOE IVEY OF BLAKELY; MISS CAP 
KING OF FORT GAINES.
MRS. COLEMAN HAS MANY FRIENDS, TO WHOM SHE WAS KNOWN AS A WOMAN OF THE 
LOFTIEST CHARACTER AND INDUSTRIOUS HABITS.  HER UNTIMELY TAKING AWAY 
PROFOUNDLY SHOCKED AND GRIEVED NOT ONLY THE NUMEROUS RELATIVES BUT THE ENTIRE 
COMMUNITY.  SHE WAS A CONSISTENT MEMBER OF THE BAPTIST CHURCH.
