Barnesville News-Gazette, August 1941
FUNERAL SERVICES FOR ALLEN COLE CONDUCTED SUNDAY
Injuries Received In Motor Cycle Crash Prove Fatal After 5 Weeks In Hospital
     Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at the First Methodist Church 
in Barnesville for Allen Cole, 22 year old Barnesville youth.  The Rev. John 
Tate of College Park, former pastor of the First Methodist Church here, was in 
charge, and burial was in Greenwood cemetery here.
     Young Cole died Friday afternoon in a Macon hospital from injuries 
received five weeks ago in a motor-cycle-automobile crash near Dublin.  
Returning home from motorcycle races there, he was thrown from a machine when 
he attempted to pass a car, and was struck by a car from the rear, it is 
said.  He has been a patient in the hospital since that time, and was gravely 
ill from the first.
     Hundreds of attentions were shown young Cole by interested Barnesville 
friends during his stay in the hospital.  He was unusually well liked here, 
where he was an employee of a local furniture store.
     Survivors include his mother, Mrs. Ruth Cole, of near Barnesville; two 
sisters, Irene and Mildred; three brothers, Robert, Homer, and Jimmy; his 
grandmother, Mrs. R. B. Hamlin of Lamar County, and a number of uncles and 
aunts.
