Bee Hiving Fatal Stroke Claims Clarke County Farmer
Clarke county farmer Jesse J. Russell, age 49, died after a paralysis while hiving a swarm a half mile from his home. He had dined earlier, and after being urged by his children Edith Marie and Jesse Lee to hire the bees, he collapsed. He lived long enough to know his surroundings, dying at 4:30 p.m. at his Crums Memorial Church area farm, with funeral services set for Thursday at 2:30 p.m. and burial in Green Hill Cemetery. He leaves his wife Elizabeth Fox Russell, two children, two sisters, and two brothers.
