PROMINENT JACKSON LADY
Mrs. Jean McLaurin Womack, Of
Jackson. is Electroeuted When
She Turns On Switch.

The following special, which
was sent out from Jackson Thurs.
day. will be read with feelings of
deep regret in Columbus, where

friends:
MRS. Jean Womack, wife of
DR.. N. c. Womack. a prominent
young physician of this city, was
instantly killed tonight when she
turned on the electric light at her
home in West Capitol street.
That is the theory of the physi-
clans who hurried to the scene.
She was found dead on the floor.
under she light, which she had
gone to turn on. and no other
cause of death can be imagined.
Mrs. Womack was the young
est daughter of the late Senator
A. J. McLaurin of Brandon, and
was married about two years ago:
coming Immediately to Jackson
to live. She leaves no children.
