Thomaston Times 
MR. E.L. CALLIER DIED
THURSDAY,
Was One of Thomaston's Oldest and Best Known Citizens.
Death claimed one of Thomaston's oldest and best known
citizens last Thursday afternoon when Mr E.L. Callier was
called to the great beyond. He was 72 years of age,
having been born in Talbot County April 12, 1841.

Mr. Callier had been quite sick for more than a week and
his death was not unexpected, but cast a gloom over the
community.

His body was carried to Talbotton last Friday and buried
there beside his wife who proceded him to the grave
several years ago.

"Uncle Bud", as he was familiarly called, was a generous
and kind hearted Soul, who always had a pleasant greeting
for everyone with whom he came in contact. He had a large
number of friends among all classes.

Mr. Callier was a Confederate Veteran, having enlisted in
Company "A" 14th GA Reg., in April 1861 and served
through the War.

Mr. Callier is survived by two children, Mr. S. M.
Callier of Thomaston, and Mrs. E.W. Strange, of
Ellaville.

The Times joins the people of Thomaston and vicinity in
offering sympathy to the bereaved family.
