He was carried to Dublin Tuesday for treatment. Capt. Briggs had spent his entire life in Brunswick and on Jekyll Island, where he was employed by the Jekyll Island Club for many years, and where he served until the club discontinued operation shortly after the start of the last war. Before going to Jekyll, Capt. Briggs served on a number of boats when Brunswick flourished as a port. He was a veteran of the Spanish America War.
