SUDDEN DEATH OF M. S. GATLIN
The many friends of M. S. Gatlin were pained to learn that he died at his home in the Prairie Valley community Wednesday afternoon at 6:30 o'clock. He had been in poor health for sometime having had spells with his heart,
but had not been seriously ill. For several days he had not been as well as previously, but Wednesday morning he was able to get up but not go to work. Wednesday afternoon he was worse and sent for the physician who came and
Gave him some temporary relief. He continued to suffer with smothering spells until the hour mentioned above when he suddenly passed away while sitting in a chair. Mr. Gatlin had been living in the Prairie Valley community for about five Years and for twenty-seven years prior had been living in the Bethlehem Community. He was an excellent citizen and had a host of friends over the Country. He is survived by five sons and three daughters, they being, Henry, Charley, Alvin, Daniel and Andrew. The daughters were, Mrs. G. W. Clark, Mrs. G. V. Simon and Miss Carrie. All the children lived in the county and those who were not living at home were living near home. The deceased was a member of the Baptist church having been a deacon of the Church at Bethlehem before his removal to the present home. He lived his religion everyday and was ready at all times to aid any one in need. He was an excellent citizen, kind and loving father and a devoted husband. The funeral service was held at the Bethlehem cemetery yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock conducted by his pastor, Rev. R. F. Jones, after which the remains were laid to rest to await the resurrection morn. To the heart broken companion and children The Messenger extends the deepest sympathy.
