The news was received in Atlanta

The remains were brought to At

Wednesday night, and accompanied by
| Mrs. BleclIey, Logan Bleckley and
! the younger children. The body was
taken to the residence of his son-in-
law and daughter, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hubert L. Culberson, at 1868 Gordon
| street, in West End, and the funeral
services will be conducted from the
Culberson residence Thursday at an

Rev. James w. Lee, pastor of
| Trinity Methodist church, and a de-
voted friend of Judge Bleckley, will
conduct the funeral exercises, and the
| interment will be in the family lot at
Oakland cemetery.
The cause Of Judge Bleckley' s
death was a recurrence of Bright's

at Gainesville.
Judge Bleckley was a comparative
ly poor man. 1t is estimated that

small real estate holdings in Atlanta
which constitute his entire estate.
can be safely valued at not more
than 500 900.

received a check for $4,000 with a
promise of another for saving the life
of a woman at Devils lake few weeks

FRANKLIN, with his wife, was spend

wealthy Chicago man, with his wife,
daughter and Miss Jenkins, sister,
in-law, also was encamped at the lake.
One morning while out in a boat
the girl and Miss Jenkins rowed over
to spring to get a drink. AS Miss
Jenkins attempted to get back into the
boat she slipped, falling into the wa
ter. The impact drove the craft from
shore and although she managed to
get hold of the boat she could not
draw herself from the water. Frank
Ign rescued her just as her strength
was about failing her.
Miss Jenkins was one Of the few
who escaped from the Iroquois theater
