E.L. STEPHENS DEAD The sad intelligence was received here last Friday, announcing the death of Mr. E.L. Stephens which occurred at Richland, Ga. on that day. Mr. Stephens had been a sufferer from Bright's disease for several months, and while every possible medical aid was rendered, all proved fruitless. He was a son of our esteemed neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. P.S. Stephens of Putnam, Ga., at which place he was born and reared. Mr. Stephens, shortly after reaching the age of twenty one removed to Richland, where he read and was admitted the practice of law. After following his profession, at that place for several years, he came to Ellaville in 1899, and engaged in a very successfull mechantile business for a couple of years. While here, he was married to Miss Nicholson of Richland. In 1900, he moved back to Richland and engaged in the merchantile business at that place, also, was a solicitor of the county court of Stewart county. Mr. Stephens was only 30 years of age, and the future held for him the brightest prospect, both, in the professional and commercial world. Funeral services and his burial took place, at Richland, Saturday afternoon at 4:30 pm.
