A Good Man Gone

The whole State of Georgia is called upon today to mourn the death of Bishop 
Atticus G. Haygood, which sad event took place at his home at Oxford, Ga., at 2 
o’clock on Sunday morning last from a stroke of paralysis, which he received in 
Atlanta a few months ago.  Bishop Haygood was 56 years of age and one of the 
most useful men in Georgia.

As a Christian gentleman he was beyond censure.  As a minister and educator he 
surpassed all others.  To say that the Southern Methodist Church has lost one 
of its brightest and most useful members but faintly expresses the truth.  A 
page sacred to his memory has been left upon the roll book of the Methodist 
Sunday School of Butler which church he dedicated a few years ago.
