Carnesville Herald & Advance, Jan. 17, 1935
MRS. CLERO WHITEN GOES TO REWARD

On Sunday, January 13th, at the home in Liberty community, the death angel 
came to claim the sweet spirit of Mrs. Myrtice Whiten, wife of Mr. Cleo 
Whiten, following an illness of five weeks with heart trouble.  Her condition 
had gradually grown worse during the past few weeks and her death, while 
coming as a great shock, was not unexpected.
Mrs. Whiten was 47 years old and was born and reared in Franklin county.  She 
was, before her marriage in 1916, Miss Myrtice McWhorter, a member of a 
prominent family of the county.  She was a teacher in the public schools of 
Franklin county for more than ten years and wherever she taught she endeared 
herself to pupils and patrons alike.
She was a consecrated christian, being a member of the Methodist church and 
taking an active part as long as health permitted in church and Sunday School 
affairs.  A more devoted wife and mother could not be found, for she was ever 
constant in looking after the welfare of her loved ones and in her death there 
is a place left vacant that none other can fill.  Her many admirable traits 
won for her the friendship of all with whom she was associated and her death 
is mourned by legions of friends.
Funeral services for this estimable lady were held at Fairview church on 
Tuesday, Jan. 15th, with Rev. S. E. Macomson and Rev. Baker Smith conducting 
the services.  Interment was in Fairview cemetery.  The large crowd of 
sorrowing friends and relatives attending the funeral was mute testimony of 
the high esteem in which she was held.
Surviving Mrs. Whiten are her husband and three children, Mary, Dan and Edith 
Whiten, two sisters, Mrs. Mattie Crump of Carnesville, Mrs. Blanche Simpson of 
atlanta and two brothers, C. R. McWhorter of Hapeville and R. E. McWhorter of 
Dallas, Texas.  These members of family and other relatives have the deepest 
sympathy of their many friends in the death of their loved one.
B. D. Ginn, funeral director, was in charge of funeral arrangements.
