JOHN D.
BROOKS
APOPLECTIC STROKE
ENDS
LIFE OF
EAST CLAY
CITIZEN
An attack of apoplexy which he suffered Monday night resulted
in the death of John D. Brooks, early Tuesday morning at his home in
the eastern part of Clay county, near Enterprise church. Before
retiring Monday night he complained of headache, but this did not
occasion alarm. He went to sleep and did not ever return to
consciousness.
The remains were interred in the cemetery at
Mars Hill, Calhoun county, Wednesday.
Mr. Brooks was a farmer
in comfortable circumstances, and by those who knew him was looked
upon as a man of the highest integrity. He had been in this county
since early manhood. His age was about 60 years. Surviving him are
his wife and one son and three daughters: Mrs. Louisa Brooks, Luther
Brooks, Mrs. R. H. Lee, Miss Lonie Brooks and Miss Clyde Brooks, all
of Clay County.
