DEATH OF A PROMISING YOUNG MAN

Griffin Herald, the 12th inst.

A wave of keenest regret spread over the city yesterday morning when it was 
announced that Mr. E.N. Mills was dead. While his numerous friends and 
relatives realized the seriousness of his illness, it was not expected that 
he would succumb so early. His death came as a great shock to the entire 
community.

Mr. Mills was one of the city's hustling young men. He had built up a 
splendid commercial printing business and for the past six years had been at 
the head of one of the State's largest printing establishments, the Mills 
Printing Company. He was 32 years of age and unmarried. Two sisters, Mrs. 
P.L. Cordy of Barnesville and Miss Kate Mills of this city survive him. 
Besides these, a father and mother Mr. and Mrs. A.J. Mills and one brother 
Harvey mourn his death.

As a business man, Mr. Mills had few equals. He was exceedingly energetic 
and the success of the establishment of which he was the head was largely 
due to his determination to succeed. When he came to Griffin six years ago, 
he was a poor boy, but by hard work and economical business methods soon 
acquired a small fortune.

Mr. Mills was taken ill several weeks ago but was thought to be recovering. 
He was able to be out on the streets a few days ago and feeling that his 
illness had passed and that he only needed a little recreation to be 
restored to permanent health, he decided to spend a short time at 
Borden-Wheeler Springs. The water at Borden-Wheeler did not have the desired 
effect and Mr. Mills was forced to return to Griffin. He suffered a relapse 
which ended in his death yesterday morning at 9 o'clock. The funeral will 
occur at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon, the services being held at the First 
Baptist church. The interment will be in Oak Hill cemetery.

Mr. J.W. Cole of Moreland and Mr. J.R. Cole of Sharpsburg went to Griffin 
Sunday morning to attend the funeral of their cousin, Mr. E.N. Mills, whose 
death occurred in that city on Saturday. The deceased was born and reared 
near Sharpsburg and the news of his death was heard with deep regret by his 
many friends in this county.
