There is no death
What seems so is transition
This life of mortal breath
Is but a suburb of the life Elysian
Whose portal we call death.
Truly do these words express the
passing away of our friend and sister.
When on Monday afternoon at
O'Clock, April the 18th, the spirit of
Ola ]. Yeomans winged its flight to
the God who gave it we realized that
she had only stepped across into
larger, fuller and more glorious
life where God wipes away all
tears from our eyes-where there
shall be no more death; neither sor-
row; neither shall there be any more
pains. Glorious thought!
Hers was well-rounded, beauti-
full character. AS a daughter she
was affectionate, consistent and du-
tiful, carrying sunshine into the
home. In her relationship as wife
and mother she seemed to realize
the depth of meaning in those two
words-"wife, mother"-and as such
was a blessing indeed. Truly, the
heart of her husband did safely trust
in her, and her children rise up and
call her blessed
Two years ago, when the Metho-

was fully alive to the interest of the
class. ever ready to respond to the
call to service anywhere at any time,
and especially did she enjoy the class
study. The eagerness with when
she entered into discussion of the
lesson proved her to be indeed "a
lover of truth" and also showed a
careful study of Gods word. In
this she was an inspiration to the
entire class.
We shall miss her sorely, and our
hearts ache at the thought that no
more will she meet and mingle Win
us on the Sabbath morn. And yet'
who knows but that she is more
really with us now than ever before.

MAhGLED BENEATH The CARS
YOUNG MAN ON THE EXCURSION
TRAIN MET HORRIBLE DEATH.
Robert Armstrong Fell Between Cars
While Returning From the Sum
day School Picnic.

Robert Armstrong Fell Between Cars
While Returning From the Sum
day School Picnic.
An accident that cost young Rob-
ert Armstrong his life marred the
pleasures of the excursion of the
Dawson Sunday schools to Column
bus Friday.
The horrible affair occurred be-
tween Cusseta and Richland on the
homeWard trip of the excursionists,
and was witnessed by Mr.. John Cope
land and several others who were on
the platform of one of the coaches.
1t seems that young Armstrong was
considerably under the influence of
Wh1skey, and while attempting to pass
from one coach into another fell be-
tween the cars. The spectators were
horrow-stricken, and as quick as pos
s1ble Mr.. Copeland jerked the bell
cord and stopped the train. The I'M
fortunate young man was picked up
and placed on a cot in the baggage
car, where he expired about five
minutes later.
An examination showed that his
neck, both arms and both legs, one
or the latter in two places, were
broken, and in his body over the
/ heart was hole in which a persons
inst could be put. Three or four cars
passed over him before the train
could be stopped. He did not get
under the wheels, however, but was
rolled and crushed by the brake
beams.
Upon reaching Dawson the body
was taken in charge by Mr.. /. C. Mel
ton, the local agent ofNthe Seaboard
Air Line railway, and shrouded and
placed in coffin bought by the road,
after which the remains were taken
to the Sears House, where Armstrong
had boarded since coming to Daw-
son about month ago.
The young man was a canvasser
for the Albany Home Supply Co..
and that firm was communicated
with, but could give no information
as to where his home was or where
his relatives lived. 1t was not I'M
til 9 O'Clock Saturday morning that
l.. M. Armstrong, a brother of the
deceased, was located at Coluuitt, in
Miller county, and the remains were
taken there on the afternoon Central
train by Mr. Melton, the Seaboard's
! agent, and Messrs. J. A. Sears and
S. D. Clark. The interment occurred
Sunday morning. On the coffin were
many pretty floral offerings from the
people of Dawson.
At Colquitt it was learned that
young Armstrong; parents live at
Graceville, Fla, and that he has rela-
tives in Alabama.

200 EXCURSlONlSTS GOT LEFT
Train Went Back to Columbus to
Take BeIated Dawson Pic
nickers Aboard.

When about 200 of the Dawson
Sunday school picnickers arrived at
the depot in Columbus Friday after
noon to return home they were cha
grinned to find that the train had
left sometime before, and was then
several miles on the way. Officials
of the railroad got busy and began
telephoning different points, with the
result that the train was found and
called back after the belated Daw-
sonians.
The cause of their missing the
train, which was scheduled to leave
Columbus at 4:30 in the afternoon,
was the failure of the street car COM
pany to provide enough cars to take
them to the depot in time.
