G. McKown Passed Away Tuesday Morning Mr. J. G. McKown, one of Grady County's prominent farmers, passed away at his home about three miles north of town last Tuesday morning at one o'clock.

The funeral services were held at Pine Level Church Tuesday afternoon, Rev. J. P. Swann, conducting the last sad rites. He was buried with W.O.W. honors, having been a member of the local lodge. Interment was in the Pine Level cemetery. The Messenger extends condolence to the bereaved ones in their hour of affliction.
