Death of Mr. Pickney Barfield

Mr. Pickney Barfield, a former resident of Taylor, but for the last several 
years a resident of Talbot County, and for the last twenty years an employee of 
the Talbotton Railroad, who died at his home near Talbotton last Thursday 
morning of congestion of the brain, was brought to Butler and interred in the 
cemetery at Bethel church Friday at noon with Masonic honors.

Mr. Barfield had for a number of years been prominently connected with the 
Masonic Lodge and was a faithful Pythian, and was not only loved and 
appreciated by these orders, but by a host of friends who knew him only to love 
him.  And this was evidenced by the following large delegation of Masons, 
Pythians and friends who accompanied his remains to Butler.  Upon the arrival 
of the remains in Butler, they were at once carried to the residence of Rev. 
J.T. Adams, W.M., of Fickling Lodge, where they were watched over by his 
Talbotton friends until carried to the cemetery by the Masonic fraternity.

Mrs. P.B. Barfield, wife of the deceased, Mr. and Mrs. T.N. Bazemore, Mr. and 
Mrs. John Slade, Mr. and Mrs. H. Herring married daughters, Miss Willie Mae, 
single daughter, Mr. J. Floyd Barfield, son, Messrs. Luther Slade, James 
Graham, H.C. Downs, Benson Maxwell, J.A. Battle, E.L. Bardwell, Jr., H.M. and 
A.A. Adams, C.K. Mahone, W.K. Couch, Misses H.O. McDaniel, H.P. Western, 
Eleanor Adams, Lizzie Sparks and Miss Armstrong.

The good people of Butler did all that they could to make the stay of these 
friends while in Butler on their sad mission, as pleasant as possible.
