Thad had been in declining health for Several months, but was confined to bed only a few days. He bruised his hands while at work, causing what we thought an Abscess, but resulted in blood poison, which made his suffering great. On June 7th he was carried to Atlanta and intered a Hospital for treatment but his system was to badly impaired to throw off the poison. He passed away calmly on June 8th. Thad was baptized 24 years ago by Bro. W. C. Cleveland. Out of a family of 10, he leaves one sister, Mrs. Mcmakin of Thomaston, Ga; one Brother, A. G. Persons of Strouds Ga; a devoted Christian Mother, and our children 6 girls and 3 boys, one little grandson and a son-in-law, E. T. Reeves to miss his Presence. We laid his body to rest in the family Cemetery to await the great eternal Mourn, when the voice of the King shall awake him. His sorrowing wife, "AURA" Yatesville, GA
