Marietta Journal
A few days ago Eddie Ford, a little son of Mr. and Mrs. William Ford, of 
Hancock County, fell from a tree with fatal results.  He was in a hickory tree 
and a limb broke.  He fell some distance to the ground, but was able to walk 
to the house.  He died in a few minutes

Mrs. Rachel Bell, of Cumming, died recently at the advanced age of 91.  She 
was the mother of Hon. H. P. Bell, late member of Congress, and the 
grandmother of Mrs. E. Gardner of LaGrange.  She had 247 descendants, 185 of 
whom are living.

T. J. Gunnels, a young merchant of Tazwell, Marion County, was attacked by 
colic Friday morning.  He took a dose of laudanum, but not finding relief, he 
sent for a physician.  The physician prescribed morphine, which Gunnels took, 
and fell into a sound sleep from which he never awoke.  Efforts to arouse him 
were futile and he died shortly after taking the morphine.  He leaves a wife 
and five children.
