Death of S.Z. Webster

After an illness of only a few days, Mr. S.Z. Webster died at his home in the 
northern part of Talbot County at an early hour on last Saturday morning.  
About a week before his death, Mr. Webster was stricken with a stroke of 
paralysis on his left side and from the very first, his family entertained but 
a slight hope for his recovery.

Mr. Webster was one of the best-known men in Talbot County, one of its very 
best citizens.  He had been a resident for many years and was always active in 
any movement to promote its growth.  He was a citizen of sterling worth, a man 
of wide influence which he always exercised for good.  At the time of his death 
he was one of the oldest citizens of the county, being about seventy-five years 
of age.  He was a member of the Baptist church and very prominent in all church 
work.

Mr. Webster had not been in the best health this year and he spent most of the 
summer at Lithia Springs.  He came home about three weeks or a month ago and 
seemed better and greatly improved in health.  He was in Talbotton the week 
before he was taken sick and called in and spent some time at the New Era 
office.

The funeral occurred at the cemetery at Evans Chapel in the Valley on Sunday 
afternoon and was largely attended, people from all parts of the county being 
present, a testimonial of the high esteem in which he was held.  He is survived 
by his wife, who is a sister of Mr. L.P. Freeman, also by Mr. Webster, a 
nephew, who lived with him.
