LOCAL MAN HURT IN FALL YESTERDAY DIES HERE TODAY

Injuries sustained in a fall from a scaffold yesterday, today proved fatal to 
Dee Holmes, 54, who passed away at the City Hospital where he was carried for 
treatment.

Mr. Holmes, who resided on Hopkins avenue, west of the plant of the Georgia 
Veneer and Package Company, was engaged in painting the McCosker Service 
Station on the Coastal Highway.  He was on the scaffold when in some way he 
lost his balance and fell to the pavement, a distance of some ten or twelve 
feet.  He was immediately carried to the hospital and an examination revealed 
his back was broken in the fall and his condition was pronounced serious.

Mr. Holmes had been a resident of Brunswick all of his life and was well known 
among a large number of friends, who will regret to learn of the unfortunate 
accident.

He is survived by two brothers, Andrew and John Holmes, and one sister, Miss 
Helen Holmes, all of this city.

Funeral services will be held at the residence tomorrow afternoon at 3:00 
o’clock, conducted by the Rev. W.F. Jamison, of the Advent Christian church.  
Burial will be in Oak Grove cemetery.  Funeral arrangements are in charge of 
the Gibson-Hart Funeral Home.
