PROMINENT MAN PASSES TO REST—W.J. WAY DIES AFTER ILLNESS OF SEVERAL MONTHS

After an illness of several months, William J. Way, one of the city’s pioneer 
citizens, died yesterday morning at 10:45 o’clock at his home 1026 Stonewall 
street.  Death was due to a complication of troubles incident to age.  Mr. way 
was 71 years old and his health had been declining for several months although 
his condition was not thought serious until about two months ago, when he 
began to sink gradually.

Mr. Way was one of Brunswick’s oldest and most highly esteemed citizens.  He 
was born in Waynesville, Ga., on April 20, 1845, but moved to Brunswick forty-
three years ago and has made this his home.

He is survived by his wife and three children.  They are Walter H. Way of 
Savannah; Albert H. Way of Brunswick, and Mrs. W.H. Meeks, of Brunswick.  Mr. 
Way was a Confederate Veteran and a member of Oglethorpe lodge, Knights of 
Pythias, which lodge will take part in the funeral services.

The funeral will be held from the Presbyterian church, of which the deceased 
was an active member for many years, at 4 o’clock this afternoon and interment 
will be in Oak Grove cemetery.

The Confederate veterans will attend the services in a body.  The following 
will be the pall bearers:  J.B. Tait, G.F. Howard, Claude Dart, T.J. Wright, 
H.J. Read, J.E. Poore, C.L. Bloodworth and A.M. Calder.
