Little Jack McWhirter Dies of Diptheria

The death of little Jack Gwynn McWhirter, six year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Leland 
S. McWhirter, of Fort Lamar, brought sadness to the countless friends of the child 
and family. Death came to him Saturday, November 2, following a three day illness 
of diptheria. The parents were enroute to a hospital when death came to little 
Jack.

Funeral services were held at Liberty church, Ft. Lamar, on Sunday with Rev. B.W. 
Hancock officiating and the body was laid to rest in the church cemetery.

Surviving the child are his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Leland S. McWhirter, Jr., one 
brother, Williams Parks McWhirter, grandparent, Mr. L.S. McWhirter, Sr. and Mr. 
and Mrs. B.P. Higginbotham. These and other relatives are extended sympathy of 
their many friends in the passing of their loved one.

An unusually large crowd attended the funeral of the child, attesting to the love 
held for it and the esteem in which the family is held by all who know them.
