Marietta Journal & Courier January 11, 1918
From the Marietta Journal & Courier dated Friday, January 11 1918:

KENNESAW

The remains of Mr Wade CROWDER who died in Marietta Saturday was brought here
Monday morning.

The funeral was conducted at the Baptist church by Rev G S BOND, after which the
interment was at the family burying grounds.  Mr CROWDER was reared here and was
the son of Mr and Mrs Jasper CROWDER.  After he entered manhood he has been away
in Alabama and California, where he held a position.  And after his health
failed, in company with his brother, Mr Will CROWDER, they went to California
thinking perhaps Wadey as he was familiarly known here among his childhood
friends, would be restored to health.  But the time had come and he was ready
and willing to go to meet Mother and brothers, who have only preceeded a few
years.  He is survived by his father and three brothers, Mr Wayne CROWDER of
Marietta, Mr A Y CROWDER of Cartersville, and Mr Will CROWDER and one
sister-in-law, Mrs Exa CROWDER of Alabama, who have the sympathy of their many
friends.

We are glad to know that Mr Wilson GRIGGS is once more at home; as a child I use
to read Amor, of Due West, what he wrote and not only was Amor a good
correspondent but he put life into the annual Journal picnic for he would have
boiled a whole ham and carried out to be placed on the table.  I hope the
editor's mouth is craving some of that ham for with the war and high prices of
meat that time past.

Mr Henry BROCK and Mr Guy BORING, who went to Colorado last fall with Mrs Jane
BROCK, have both enlisted in the army out west.

Mr Claud BOND, son of Rev G S BOND, is now in France.  He has been over about
ten weeks.  Claud at the time of his enlistment was working in Atlanta in a
bakery and the government sent him out west where he graduated in the bakery
business before sailing for France.

Herman THOMAS, son of Mr and Mrs Dallas THOMAS, is now in France.  Herman had a
position in Atlanta at the time of his enlistment in the Navy.  His brother Joe
who lived with his mother, was at San Domingo.  Joe enlisted in the Navy last
spring and each of these young men was sent a box of cake by their aunt, Miss
Nannie ROBERTS, before Xmas.

Mr Bud HOWELL has returned home after a visit to his son at Rome.

Mr Pola ARRINGTON of Powder Springs was up last week and while here was the
guest of Joe SIWARD and W F TRIPP.
