Mrs. Franklin suffered a fall two months ago, from which she never fully recovered, and this, on account of her advanced age, caused the illness which resulted in her death. The deceased, who has been a resident of Brunswick for many years, was the oldest living member of the First Methodist church, having been a member constantly for 55 years. She has been a most active member, and in her younger life was a leader in the work of the church. Mrs. Franklin was possessed of a most lovable character and during her long residence in Brunswick has made an unusually large number of close friends, all of whom will be grieved to learn of her death. The deceased was born in Quincy, Fla., on Nov. 17, 1846, being 80 years of age. She was married to John R. Franklin, of this city, who died many years ago, and she has resided in this city continuously since that time. The deceased is survived by the following children: Misses Josephine and Jennie Franklin, Mrs. Helene Cheatham, Mrs. Mac Anderson, and Mrs. Joe B. Austin. The funeral will be held this afternoon at 4 o’clock, from the First Methodist church, Rev. W.P. Blevins conducting the services. The following gentlemen will act as pall bearers: Judge D.W. Krauss, P.W. Fleming, L.C. Kilgore, Dr. F.M. Aldrich, R.E. Jennings and John A. Davis. The interment will be in Oak Grove cemetery, and the funeral will be in charge of Undertaker Edo Miller.
