Olin P. Scott Dies After Short Illness

Appendicitis Proves Fatal To Well Known Hollonville Citizen

Widespread sorrow was caused by the announcement that Olin P. Scott of 
Hollonville, one of Pike County's most progressive farmers, had succumbed to 
appendicitis last Saturday.
Mr. Scott became ill Wednesday and was taken to the Griffin Hospital where an 
operation was performed Wednesday night, but in spite of all that medical 
skill could do for him death resulted at 2 'oclock Saturday afternoon.  Mr. 
Scott was only 35 years old but was one of the most popular men in the county 
and numbered his friends by his acquaintances.  He was a son of the late Mr. 
and Mrs. W. S. Scott.
He is survived by his wife and five children, the youngest of whom is only two 
weeks old.  Mrs. Scott, before her marriage, was Miss Maude Johnson, daughter 
of Mr. and Mrs. Marsh S. Johnson.  Mrs. Johnson is dead but Mr. Johnson has 
been making his home with Mr. and Mrs. Scott for sometime.  Other surviving 
relatives of Mr. Scott are two sisters, Mrs. D. S. Allen of Zebulon, and Mrs. 
C. M. Anderson of Zetella, and two brothers, R. E. Scott and C. W. Scott.
Mr. Scott was one of the most active members of the Methodist church at 
Hollonville and the funeral services, which were held from the home at 4 
o'clock Sunday afternoon, were conducted by his pastor, the Rev. Mr. Pharr, 
assisted by Rev. Mr. Jones of Concord, and Rev. Mr. Brown of Woolsey.  
Interment was in the cemetery at Hollonville.
Both the Scott and the Johnson families are widely known and have furnished 
this county some of the most highly respected and most progressive citizens 
and they have a host of friends who extend to them their sincerest sympathy in 
their bereavement.

Additional Comments:
Olin's parents are William S and Martha Huckaby Scott and his grandparents are 
Robert and Mary Coggin Scott.
Maude's parents are Marshal S and Lillie Johnson and her grandparents are
