MR. H. M. EMANUEL DIES TUESDAY NIGHT

Mr. H. M.  Emanuel, one of the oldest citizens of the county and a well 
known Confederate Veteran died Tuesday night after a long spell of 
illness.  

Mr. Emanuel was very aged and feeble and his death though sad was not a 
surprise to his loved ones.  He was a splendid old gentleman and a type 
of the old school.  He served with distinction  in the Confederate Army 
and was a familiar figure at the various reunions of his old comrades in 
arms.  He was buried yesterday afternoon in the Sylvania Cemetery in the 
presence of a number of his old friends and acquaintances.  His two sons, 
John H. and James H. Emanuel are well known in the city as they have been 
residents of Bainbridge for many years.  Mr. Emanuel was a solid and most 
substantial kind of man and a man that every one loved.  His long service 
as a citizen is respect by all of his friends.  He was much loved by his 
old comrades and the last reunion or rather Memorial was in April and 
since that time, several of his old friends have preceded him.
