  Mr. S. Percival Robertson, a brother of Mr. J. W. Robertson of this

of Mr. W. B. R. Pennington of this city. Mr. Robertson moved to Morgan
county where he filled the office of Justice of Peace for several years.
In 1908 he moved to Athens, Ga.
  Mr. Robertson numbered his friends by the hundreds. He was a consistant
member of the Methodist church the greater part of his life and died in the
full faith in Christ as his saviour. He leaves a wife, two sons, one
daughter, one brother and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his
death. He was buried at Pennington, in Morgan County, Saturday, his pastor
Rev. Melton conducting the service. His nephews, the five sons of Mr.
