Danielsville Monitor  1919

From Danielsville Monitor

Mr. Cleo Smith Victim of Influenza

   Many relatives and friends were made to mourn on last
Wednesday when news was received that Mr. Cleo Smith
had died at Camp McClellan.
   Mr. Smith had been ill for some time but on Monday he
was so much better, when unexpectedly he was stricken
with a throat trouble which caused his death on Tuesday.
His father, Mr. Ben Smith had just returned from a visit 
to him, leaving him as he thought, so much better, that 
no one was prepared for the sad news of his death.
   Cleo is the only one of our Comer boys as yet to make
the supreme sacrifice for his country and it was with sad
hearts that his townspeople saw his body arrive on 
Friday _____ neath its drapery of stars and bars.
   The funeral was conducted at Paoli on Saturday by 
Rev. Betts and interment was at Paoli cemetary.
   The bereaved had the sympathy of the entire town.



Note from submitter:

Date of death was 15 January 1919.
