Mrs. Annie Harley Dies, Prominent Sparta Woman, Funeral on Wednesday

Sparta, Ga., November 25 – Mrs. Annie Pierce Harley, 78, died suddenly at her 
home here Monday from the effects of a stroke of paralysis.  She had been in 
unusually good health for a person of her age and her death has cast a gloom 
over Sparta, as she was greatly beloved by every citizen.

Mrs. Harley was the widow of the late Judge James A. Harley, who died several 
years ago.

She was the youngest daughter of the late Bishop George F. Pierce, and had 
been a life-long resident of Sparta and Hancock county.  She was a graduate of 
Wesleyan College in the early days after its establishment and had always been 
a prominent and outstanding member of the Methodist denomination.

She is survived by two daughters Misses Paula and Ella Harley; two sons, G.F. 
Harley and James A. Harley, of Columbus; one brother, Colonel Lovick Pierce, 
of Sparta; one sister, Mrs. Claude Pierce Middlebrooks, of Sparta.  The last 
two named are past 80 years of age and are the only children of Bishop and 
Mrs. George F. Pierce now living.

The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o’clock and interment will 
be in the Sparta cemetery.
