Little John Screven Atkinson, aged 2 1/2 months, the youngest child of Judge and Mrs. Samuel C. Atkinson, died today at noon, at the residence of his parents. The little one had been ill for several weeks with dysentery. Nothing that medical skill could do to save the bright young life was spared, but he steadily grew worse, passing away today just as the funeral procession of Mr. Cook was moving down the adjoining street to the church. The funeral will occur tomorrow at 12:30 p.m. from St. Mark’s Episcopal church, Rev. H.E. Lucas conducting the services. The pallbearers will be Messrs. F.E. Twitty, Lewis Jones, J.W. Bennett and John C. Green. Judge and Mrs. Atkinson have the sincerest sympathy of a host of friends in the sad removal of a ray of sunshine from their home. The little one, even at such a tender age, gave promise of a prominent and honored life.
