Mrs. W. H. Barnes Called To Reward
Coming as a shock to the family and a host of friends was the death of Mrs. W. H. Barnes, which occurred about 3 o'clock Friday morning at her home on North Mulberry street. She was ill for only a short time before the end came. Death resulted from heart trouble. Though she had not been in good health for some time, her passing came as a profound shock and caused widespread grief.
Mrs. Barnes was one of the best loved women in the county. She was 63 years of age and was Miss Laura Saunders, of Butts county, previous to her marriage. She had long been a member of Macedonia church and was a splendid type of Christian gentlewoman. She was a most faithful and dutiful wife and kind, indulgent mother and by countless friends was held in the most affectionate esteem. She held a very dear place in the home and her going means an irreplaceable loss to the family.
A sad feature in connection with Mrs. Barnes' death was the fact that a family reunion had been planned for Friday and all members of the family, with the exception of a son who resides in Texas, had planned to be present.
Mrs. Barnes is survived by her husband, Mr. W. Homer Barnes, successful business man of Jackson, five sons, Messrs. Bert, Gordon, Watson, and Saunders Barnes, of Jackson, and Mr. Crowder Barnes, of Naples, Texas; five daughters, Mrs. J. O. Maddox, of Luella, Mrs. W. L. Dunagan, of Macon, Mrs. W. M. Quick, of Stanford, N. C., and Misses Frances and LaRue Barnes; three brothers, Messrs. G. P. and Troy Barnes, of Butts county, and C. B. Saunders, of Eastman. She is also survived by a number of grandchildren.
Funeral services were held at Macedonia church Sunday morning at 11 o'clock, Rev. J. S. Hartsfield conducting the services. Many beautiful floral tributes attested the love and esteem of friends. The pallbearers were selected from Jackson lodge, Knight of Pythias. Interment was in the Macedonia cemetery.
