Notes



COLLINS

George G. COLLINS, age 45, beloved citizen of our city, died at the home here Wednesday morning after an illness dating from his days of service in the U.S. Army during the World War. Mr. Collins was born at Lincoln, Ark.; was inducted into the army at Fayetteville on July 21, 1918, served several months overseas. Soon after his discharge he was given a rating of total disability and his health continued to fail gradually until death.

The family have made their home here for the past several years and everyone knew and loved Mr. COLLINS who, despite his severe suffering, was cheerful, patient and friendly to all.

Surviving him of the immediate family are his widow and one son. Funeral services will be held at the Roberts Chapel Friday afternoon at 2:30 and burial made in the Westville Cemetery. The American Legion will assist in the funeral service with military honors for a departed, beloved buddy.

Card of Thanks - We are sincerely grateful for the kindness shown us during the sad hours caused by the death of our husband and father. May God bless each of you. Mrs. G.G. COLLINS, Vernon COLLINS
