Death From A Snake Bite

We were pained to learn the following information from the Montezuma Record:
“Miss Gertrude Martin, of Fort Valley, was on a visit to her sister in Tatnall
County.  They were out picking blackberries and she was bitten by a rattlesnake.
 She died in five hours.  Her remains were brought to Fort Valley for burial.”  

We boarded with her mother several years when Gertrude was quite small and she
always seemed like a sister to us.  We deeply sympathize with the family in
their bereavement.
