The Schley County News  Friday, September 1, 1911
MR. R.M. MURPHY DEAD
Again we are called upon to chronicle the death of one of our best citizens, 
Mr. R.M. Murphy, who departed this life on his 57th birthday, Aug. 27th, 
1911.  He has held various offices of public trust in this county.  Was 
postmaster of Ellaville several years, which position he filled to the 
satisfaction of all.  For several years after being postmaster Mr. Murphy 
served as Justice of the Peace for the Ellaville district and gave up the 
office after his health had failed him, incapacitating him from attending to 
the duties of this office.  He leaves a wife, three sons, one daughter and his 
father to mourn his death.  The funeral was conducted at his home the 
following day by Rev. R.E. Bailey, in the presence of a large concourse of 
relatives and friends, and his remains laid to rest in the cemetery at 
Ellaville.  We extend sympathy to the immediate family in this, their sad hour 
of bereavement.
