The Schley County News  Friday, October 26, 1906
DEATH OF MRS. GAY Mrs. Annie Gay, wife of the late
Jacob M. Gay of this county, died at the home of her
sister, Mrs. J.M. Thornton, at Americus on last
Sunday.  The remains were brought to Ellaville on
the early morning train Monday and conveyed to the
family burying ground near the old homestead where
she had lived the greater part of her days.


Relative to the life of this good woman lived, we
feel nothing we might, in our humble way say, would
even approach a just eulogy to her memory.  But as
it was our good fortune to know her in childhood and
until we reached man-hood's stage of life, we do
know the sweet influences she exerted and the many
acts of love and kindness she administered will ever
record her name upon our memory as being one of the
sweetest. best, most cultured and refined women that
it was ever our pleasure to know.  The greatest
evidence of her real merits was that her whole life
was a complete sacrifice for those she loved, and
whether her efforts of loyalty and love were not
with proper consideration or a bitter
disappointment, she, never the less, stood true to
every obligation of life, bearing them bravely
without a murmer or complaint.  We feel not the
slightest hesitancy in saying that this sweet soul
has received that last and only reward--a home of
peace and love beyond the skies.
