From the Toccoa Record, ca. January 24, 1918 issue:

                           BIG A
                  SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. BELL

Mrs. Mary Bell, of Big A, died very suddenly Monday morning.  She 
had been in delicate health for many years, but her death being 
entirely unexpected, was a great shock to her family and friends.

Funeral services were conducted by Rev. R.L. Davis at Ebenezer church, 
of which she was a member, Tuesday afternoon.

At the time of her death Mrs. Bell was in her 71st year.  She was a 
true Christian, a kind friend and neighbor, and will be greatly 
missed by our community.

She is survived by her husband, Mr. J.D. Bell, one of our best known
citizens, and six children:  Messrs. W. T., D.J., W.H., and D.L., of 
Big A; S.A., of Louisville, Ga; and Miss Etta, of Big A; also by 
several grandchildren and other relatives.

On behalf of the community The Record correspondent extends sympathy to 
the stricken family.
