E. Means. Mrs. Sallie Gains [sic; should be Gaines] Means, wife of Mr. Walter E. Means died at their home at Elko last Monday night. It was reported here Tuesday morning that she was stung by bees, that she fainted and never recovered consciousness, but this report has not been verified. From reports concerning recent illness, it is concluded that she died of heart trouble. We regret our inability to obtain particulars. She was a most excellent christian lady, and her friends were all those who knew her. Surviving her are the devoted husband, a son two years old, two brothers and two sisters. To the bereaved ones, their many friends extend sincere sympathy. The Heavenly Father hath but claimed His own. Additional Comments: Sallie Crawford (Gaines) Means was born 29 September 1879. She married Walter E. Means on 3 November 1895 in Houston Co., GA. She and her husband are buried in the Dr. Matthew Harvey Means Family Cemetery in Elko, Houston Co., GA.
