Died in Mississippi

Mr. W.R. Thigpen, who married Miss Jeannie Ellison, died on the 24th of August 
of acute Bright’s disease in Vicksburg, Miss., where he has been in business 
for three years.

Mr. Thigpen was a remarkably fine man and loved by all who knew him.  As firm 
and decided as a man could be and yet as gentle and tender as a woman.  A model 
husband, son, brother and friend.

His sorrowing wife is with her father, Col. W.H. Ellison, in Talbot County.  He 
was buried in Newnan by the side of his parents and babe.

Deepest sympathies are extended by the New Era and its readers.
