Sudden death shocks Newnan and Coweta friends
The death of Mr A R Word in Atlanta last Tuesday evening shocks his Newnan Coweta county friends. He served in the Confederate War as a member of Company A First Georgia Regiment. He was 63 and had lived in Atlanta two years after moving from Newnan. He leaves a wife Miss Jessie Snelling and nine children. The Atlanta Constitution notes his prominent social and business standing in Georgia. Other items include a musical comedy at the Auditorium, a 30th wedding anniversary barbecue at Sharpsburg, a dress goods promotion, a Carrollton wedding, and local obituaries.
