MELVIN DAVIS JONES

   Mr. and Mrs. E.P. Jones lost by death their little eleven-months old son, 
Melvin Davis Jones, Tuesday, June 6.  The baby was ill only a few days and 
the bereaved parents have the universal sympathy of our townspeople in their 
sorrow, which comes to them with peculiar force in the sudden taking away of 
their little one.

   Burial services were conducted Wednesday afternoon at 5 o’clock in Poplar 
Spring Cemetery by Dr. C.H. Rowland, assisted by Rev. J.A. Chapman.
