Watson Mr. Burrell Watson, a well known and highly esteemed citizen died at his home here Wednesday night after an illness of several months. Mr. Watson was reared in the community in which he died and was considered one of the best farmers and citizens of the community. Mr. Watson is survived by his wife and several children. Quite a large number from all parts of the county attended the funeral, which was conducted by Rev. J.T. Adams. The floral offerings were beautiful. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family. Additional Comments: Note: Burrell Watson was a son of Perry C. Watson and Martha Hart.
