Mrs. Homer E. Williams Died Last Thursday


Following closely behind the death of her husband,
Mrs. Annie Lee Loyless Williams, 44, wife of the late
Homer E. Williams, died in a Cuthbert hospital at 6
o'clock the past Thursday morning.  Mrs. Williams,
whose death was attributed to a cerebral hemorrhage,
was stricken ill soon after the death of her husband
and was carried to the hospital for treatment.  The
news of her passing occasioned widespread sorrow. 


Mrs. Williams, who was born in this county on November
23, 1900, was a daughter of Mr. J. Chesterfield
Loyless and the late Mrs. Loyless.  She was a member
of the Langston Methodist Church.


Funeral services were held Friday afternoon at four
o'clock at the home of her father, with the Revs. J.
Alton Davis and W. E. Storey officiating. Interment
was in the city cemetery, with the Minter Funeral Home
in charge and C. W. Shierling, J. E. Beckham, Joe
Bowman, Howard Davenport, D. D. Knighton and H. C.
Fort serving as pall-bearers.


The large number of friends attending the last rites
and the lovely floral offerings attested the love and
sympathy of many friends for the deceased and for the
members of the family whose hearts have been deeply
grieved by the passing from the home in so short a
time of both father and mother.


Surviving Mrs. Williams are her four children, Mrs.
Jeanette Widener, Peggy Ann Williams, Jerry
Chesterfield Williams and James Franklin Williams; her
father, J. C. Loyless; and the following brothers and
sisters: Curtis Loyless, J. C. Loyless, Jr., Miss
Bessie Loyless and Mrs. Ruby Jarrett, all of Blakely;
Jesse Loyless, of Donalsonville; Mrs. Emmie Julian, of
Albany, and Bill Loyless, of the U. S. Army.

Homer Williams Killed Sunday In Tragic Accident


Homer Lee Williams, 46, met death in a tragic manner
Sunday about noon when he stepped from a moving truck
a few miles east of the city.  Riding in the rear of
the truck, Mr. William's hat blew off, and after
summoning the driver to stop the truck, he is believed
to have stepped from the truck before it stopped,
falling on his head and receiving fatal injuries.


Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at 4
o'clock at the home of his father-in-law, Mr. J. C.
Loyless, with the Revs. J. A. Davis and Cliff Davis
officiating.  Interment was in the city cemetery, with
the Minter Funeral Home in charge of arrangements and
Woodrow Houston, C. P. Gay, C. W. Shierling, S. G.
Maddox, V. D. Oswald and Willard Houston serving as
pall-bearers.


Mr. Williams was a native of Early County, where he
was born April 11, 1899. He was a son of the late Mr.
and Mrs. Tobe Williams and was a member of the Sardis
Methodist church.  He had for the past two seasons
been superintendent of the Farmers Gin & Warehouse
Company peanut shelling plant.  The news of his death,
one of several in this family in recent years, caused
profound sorrow among his many friends.


Surviving Mr. Williams are his widow, Mrs. Annie Lee
Williams; four children, Mrs. Donald Widener, Peggy
Williams, Jerry Williams and James Williams, all of
Blakely; one brother, Perry W. Williams, of
Louisville, Ky., and one sister, Mrs. Milton Bryant,
