The Schley County News  Friday, September 6, 1907  
MRS. T.B. RAINEY DIES AT BUENA VISTA
Sorrow must come to all, and oft-times when least expected, but one of the 
saddest and most unexpected deaths that has happened in this section for many 
years was that of Mrs. T.B. Rainey, occuring at her home in Buena Vista on 
last Thursday afternoon.  The news of her death reached Ellaville by phone 
immediately after she had breathed her last, and her many relatives and 
friends here were wholly unprepared to recieve such a message, the shock 
coming so sudden. Mrs. Rainey was Miss Kitty Tyson before her marriage to Col. 
T.B. Rainey several years ago, both of Schley county.  After their marriage, 
they moved to Buena Vista to begin their new life, where both had gained 
esteem and admiration of all the citizens of that place.  Mrs. Rainey died in 
a stage of life when it seems that it is hardest for "mother" to have to go.  
She was about 28 years of age, and was a happy wife of her companion and a 
loving mother of four little children.  Those who are left to miss her most 
shall have the full sympathy and love of all whose priviledge it may be to 
offer, by words or deeds, an act of condolence. Her remains were brought to 
Ellaville on the Friday morning's train, accompanied by a large host of 
symapthetic friends and in special charge of the Local Chapter of United 
Daughters of the Confederacy of Buena Vista, of which Mrs. Rainey was a much 
beloved member. In the presence of one of the saddest and most heart rendered 
congregations, the funeral services were conducted by Revs. R.F. Williamson 
and C.M. Ledbetter, of this place, at the Baptist church. Rev. Williamson's 
remarks were very touching indeed, as he called to mind that he had known Mrs. 
Rainey from her infancy to womanhood, having lived within a short distance of 
her, and that her life had always been one full of sunshine and cheer. The 
services were concluded at the grave, and her sweet spirit is now at rest, 
pronounced so by him who gave it, while her body lies silent in Ellaville's 
little "city of the dead." The News extends deepest sympathy to the bereaved 
father and the precious little children.
