GEORGE p. WOODS DEAD.
He Was Formerly Editor Of The Haw-
kinsville Dispatch,

Hawkinsville, Ca, Dec. 10--George p
Woods, who died last night at O'Clock
of pneumonia, was buried here this after
noon a. Orange Hill cemetery. Ten years
ago Mr. Woods, as editor Of the Haw-
kinsville Dispatch, was one of the most
influential country newspaper men in
Georgia and was a power in wire-grass
politics. About four years ago he sold
his interest in the Dispatch and retired
from active journalistic work because
the dread disease locomotor ataxia had
named him as one of its victims. In days
gone by he had a penchant for writing
snake and gourd stories and some of them
would have made Baron Munehausen
envy such fertile imagination.
