The Georgia Enterprise, Aug. 8, 1902

Death of Mr. Montgomery
  Mr. Rufus F. Montgomery died at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
J. T. Taylor, near Brick Store at 1 o'clock last Saturday afternoon
of heart disease.
  For several years, Mr. Montgomery had made his home at Tulare, 
California, and came back to his old home in Newton county some
six weeks ago. Soon after he arrived, he was taken ill, from which
he never recovered, but continued to grow worse until death ended his
sufferings last Saturday. He died in the county where he had spent
more that half a century and where he was loved for those pure christian
graces which marked his course through life.
  Mr. Montgomery was about 72 years of age. Two children still live,
Mrs. J. T. Taylor, of Brick Store, and Mr. P. J. S. Montgomery, of
Tulare, California.
  The deceased is survived by two sisters, Mrs. T. B. Haralson, of 
Social Circle, and Mrs. J. E. McConnell, of Vernon, Texas, and many
relatives in this and Walton County.
  The funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. F. Allen of Emory
College, Sunday morning at the Methodist Church in Social Circle
and the remains laid to rest in the cemetery in the presence of a 
large concourse of relatives and friends.
