MAC H. BURROUGHS PASSES AWAY HERE—Well Known Insurance Man Died Unexpectedly 
Saturday Night.

	Mac H. Burroughs, prominent Brunswick insurance man, who was born and 
reared in this city, died unexpectedly at his Windsor Park home Saturday night.
	Mr. Burroughs several months ago suffered a serious illness.  However, 
he recovered and while not enjoying the best of health in recent weeks, he had 
not been confined to his bed, and was at his desk as usual Saturday.  About 
10:30 o’clock, and died within a few minutes, before a physician could be 
called.
	Mr. Burroughs was born in Brunswick July 22, 1885, and he had resided 
here all of his life.  He was a member of an old and prominent south Georgia 
family, being a son of the late Dr. William B. and Mrs. Elizabeth Hazlehurst 
Burroughs, pioneer south Georgia residents.
	Mr. Burroughs was married to Miss Eliza Fenton McIntosh on October 12, 
1912.
	Practically all of his life he had been engaged in the insurance 
business and since 1926 had been a member of the firm of Parker, Burroughs and 
Way.  He was well known among an unusually large number of friends, who were 
grieved and shocked to learn of his death.
	Mr. Burroughs is survived by his wife, two daughters, Mrs. Frances 
Baker, of this city, and Mrs. Charles Wells, of Daytona Beach, Fla.; two sons, 
Swinton Burroughs of this city, and Mac. H. Burroughs, Jr., of Miami; two 
sisters, Mrs. Mary B. Deming of this city, and Mrs. C.A. Taylor, Sr., of St. 
Marys, and five grandchildren.
	Funeral services were held at St. Marks Episcopal church, of which he 
had been a life long member, at 4 o’clock this afternoon conduced by the Rev. 
Talbert Morgan, and burial was in Palmetto cemetery.  The following served as 
pallbearers:  J.C. Kaufman, Richard Peters, Wright Parker, Norman A. Way, 
Potter F. Gould and Nat Nightingale.  The funeral was in charge of Mortician
