Coming as a shock and surprise to a large circle of friends was the death of Mrs. Cornelius McClure, which occurred at her home near Stark Monday night at 11 o'clock. Paralysis was the cause of death. She had been in feeble health for several months, but news of her demise came as a shock to many friends over the county.
Mrs. McClure, who was 55 years of age, was a Miss Mayfield before her marriage. She was one of the county's most highly respected and widely beloved women, enjoying the esteem of all who knew her. For many years she had been a member of Macedonia church and was a faithful and devoted member.
Surviving Mrs. McClure are her husband, Mr. Cornelius McClure; three sons, Mr. J. T. McClure, warden of the Butts county camp, Mr. T. C. McClure, and Sergeant J. A. McClure, with the Jackson Rifles in Camp Harris; two daughters, Mrs. C. B. Biles and Mrs. Ezra Williamson.
The funeral was held at Macedonia Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock, many relative and friends gathering for a last tribute. The service was conducted by Rev. W. O. Sharp and interment was in the church yard.
