TURIN News



Oct. 12th



A cloud of sorrow hangs over our town because of the death of Judge D.R. 

Thurman, which sad event occurred on Friday last. He had been in failing 

health for several months although he did not take to his bed until a few 

days before his death. For many years he filled the office of Justice of the 

Peace in this district and was held in high esteem by everyone. He was a 

veteran of the Civil War and when called to his final rest had passed his 

70th birthday. He was a member of Turin Lodge F. & A.M. and devoted to that 

order. He is survived by his wife and three sons, the latter being Judge 

Albert Thurman of Monticello, Mr. Wm. Thurman of Atlanta and Mr. Pierre 

Thurman of Tifton. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. W.S. Gaines after 

which the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at this place with 

Masonic honors. Thus, after spending forty years in our community, he has 

gone to his final reward, and we drop a tear to his memory.
