The funeral services were conducted from the residence on the morning of May 18th, the Rev A J MORGAN of Acworth officiating. "Abide With Me" and "Nearer My God To Thee" were sung by a quartette choir. The interment was in the Powder Springs Cemetery. The pall-bearers were nephews of the deceased: Messrs J R LINDLEY, Pat ANDERSON, Charles LINDLEY, Henry MANNING, W P CAMP, and Tilden CONNOR. Mrs MANNING is survived by two daughters, Misses Lula and Sara MANNING, one son, Mr Frank MANNING of Tifton, one brother, Mr Jim LINDLEY of Powder Springs, and several grandchildren. Mrs MANNING, who was Miss Elizabeth LINDLEY, spent her girlhood in Powder Springs, moving to the beautiful country home on the Powder Springs road on her marriage. She was a devout member of the Baptist Church, and had been a devoted Church worker. Although she had been beautifully educated and was an intellectual woman, Mrs MANNING was modest and retiring, and was essentially a home maker. Sincerity was the keynote of her character, and she was ever a loyal friend and good neighbor. The love and esteem in which she was held was attested to by the many beautiful floral offerings that covered her grave.
