MR. DAVID M. MIZELL DIED. The sudden death of an original Charlton County citizen occurred last Wed. afternoon when Mr. David M. Mizell, age 78, dropped to the ground in his yard and expired almost instantly from a heart attack. No one was at home at the time of his death but a granddaughter, who summoned aid. Mr. Mizell was in Folkston Tuesday, apparently in normal health and had not complained of any ill feelings. He had been connected with the development of Charlton, having settled on the old James L. Johns place near Moniac, which he opened up, and afterwards settled up several places in different sections of the county. He was an expert woodsman with the instinct of an Indian. He could go directly to any point. It has been our pleasure to be with him, and wonder how he could go as straight as a compass to a given point. He lost his wife some two years ago and leaves four boys and three daughters surviving him. The boys are Sheriff W.H., Mitchell, Jackson and Edward. Daughters are Mrs. Lizzie Chesser, Mrs. Sarah Cason, and Mrs. Laura Raulerson. Funeral was at Sardis Thursday with W.O. Gibson officiating.
