Mr. A.O. McEachin
(Dec 6, 1868 - Mar 20,1914

1914

Mr. A.O. McEachin, one of the largest planters and
best known citizens of this county died in the Wesley
Memorial Hospital in Atlanta last Friday, and was
buried at his old home place twelve miles from
Hazelhurst, Sunday.

Mr. McEachin's condition baffled the local doctors as
well as one fo the best known Specialists of the
state. He was first examined at the Dr. Hall's
Sanitairum at this city and an abcess of the brain
was pronounced, he was carried to Atlanta, and was
examined by Dr. Calhoun and the same thin was thought
by him. He underwent an operation of the head to
remove the abcess, but the operation proved to no
avail and no abcess was found.

Mr. McEachin was born and raised in this section, he
leaves a wife, five daughters and three boys besides
hundreds of friends and relatives.

Jeff David County loses in the death of Mr. McEachin,
one of her most substantial citizens, a man with
means, a man with friends.

The News deeply sympathize with the bereaved ones.
