     The remains of Dr. T. H. Thurmond, of Columbus, a former resident of this

his family to Columbus, where he enjoyed the love and high esteem of the 
citizens of that city.

W. Curry, of the Rose Hill Methodist church.
     Surviving are his wife, Mrs. Florence Joiner Thurmond, a daughter, Mrs. 
Lewis Thurmond, of Columbus, one son, Harris Thurmond, of Columbus, and a step-
daughter, Mrs. Lawrence Joiner, of the Philippine Islands.
     A short service was held at the grave when the cortege reached Dawson 
Tuesday, the pallbearers, old acquaintances of the deceased, being Mr. J. A. 
Holsey, Sr., Mr. Dudley Cocke, Mr. W. R. Baldwin, Mr. J. C. Hollingsworth,
