"Clothing on Fire Burned to Death.  Mr. Abe Greeson While in Field Meets Horrible Death," The Calhoun (Georgia) Times, 31 Mar 1910, p. 1.
CLOTHING ON FIRE
BURNED TO DEATH.
Mr. Abe Greeson While in 
Field Meets Horrible 
Death.
------------------------
	Mr. Abe Greeson met a horrible death Friday afternoon.
	Mr. Greeson was in his field cleaning off land and burning off the 
ditch banks.  It is supposed that his clothing caught on fire and he was 
unable to put the fire out as he was alone.  He was found later in the evening 
burned nearly up.  Mr. Greeson was 80 years old and spent the most of his life 
in Gordon County and was a good citizen and a good neighbor and a kind and 
loving father.  He leaves an aged companion and five sons and two daughters to 
mourn his loss.  His remains were laid to rest at Corinth Cemetery Saturday 
afternoon funeral service by Rev.  J.  M.  Austin.  We extend our sympathy to 
the bereaved ones.
