Funds Flood In For Slain Deputy Yancey Family
Deputy Dave Yancey was buried Wednesday as Atlanta citizens raised over 800 dollars for his widow and six orphans. A 900 dollar mortgage remains on their Jonesboro road farm and the family plans to stay there to work the land and earn a living selling eggs and vegetables. The Yancey tragedy has drawn nationwide sympathy with a telegram from Cincinnati subscribers confirming a 15 dollar pledge from Atlanta delegates to the National Association of Credit Men.
