W. H. Martin Dead

Mr. W.H. Martin, for many years an honored and respected citizen of this
county, later of Statenville, Echols county, died last Sunday. His
remains were entered [sp] in Echols county, where two of his children
were buried.

Mr. Martin had been in very feeble health for several years, and it was
known when he left Pike with his family last winter that he could not
live much longer.

He retained a cheerful spirit, however, amid his sickness and
participated heartily in the pleasant social conversations which took
place in his presence. He was a true man and had many friends, besides a
large number of relatives, in this immediate section, who have learned
with genuine sorrow of his death.

To Mrs. Martin and her children we tender specially our sympathy in the
loss of one so near and dear to them.
