The following obituary appeared in the 14 Oct 1921
edition of the Elberton Star newspaper: 

"MR. MARION HALL DIED LAST NIGHT.

"Mr. Marion Hall, wealthy citizen of Bowman, died at 
the home of his daughter, Mrs. E. V. McLanahan, last
night about 8 o'clock. He will be buried at the Bowman
cemetery this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Mr. Hall was up
and about as usual yesterday and death was a shock and
a surprise to his family and friends. Shortly after 
retiring for the night his daughter heard loud breathing
and went to his room to see if he was all right, and 
found him very sick. He lived only a few moments after
her arrival. Mr. Hall was a Confederate veteran, a good
farmer and business man and a useful citizen. He is 
survived by two children - Mrs. E. V. McLanahan of 
Bowman and L. M. Hall of Atlanta."
