The Covington Star, April 29,  1885
Local and Star-light Items.
     Maj. W. D. LUCKIE, of Atlanta, died at his home in that city, on last 
Thursday night, after a long and painful illness, of cancer of the stomach, 
aged about 43 years. Major LUCKIE was born in Covington, and grew to manhood 
among the people of our little city, who knew and loved him dearly. He entered 
the Confederate service as a member of the Athens Guards which formed company 
K, of the old 3d Ga. regiment, and served with distinction until the surrender 
at Appomattox. Since the war he has been engaged in business to Atlanta, and 
has made that city his home. He has filled many positions of honor and trust, 
and was cashier of the Merchants bank at the time of his death. He was an 
honest man and good citizen, and we can but mourn his untimely death. He was 
buried by the Knights Templars on Sunday afternoon.
