Death of Mrs. Elizabeth Bayne

Mrs. Elizabeth Singleton Bayne passed away at her home in Vineville, Macon, last Sunday afternoon at five o'clock.

Mrs. Bayne was only ill two days. Five years ago she received serious injurious in a railroad accident, which caused her much suffering and was no doubt the indirect cause of her death. For the past nine years she has resided with her son, Mr. Samuel E. Bayne, in Macon. She was 56 years of age, and leaves two sons and two daughters, and a stepson, Mr. J. M. Bayne, of this city, and a large circle of relatives and friends, by whom she was greatly beloved.

Mrs. Bayne was a native of this city, and has a large number of life-long friends here. She was the daughter of the late Mr. Samuel Singleton, and widow of the late A. F. Bayne. Her remains were brought to this city yesterday. The funeral services were held at the Methodist church, of which she was a devoted member during her residence here. The funeral services were conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. H. Mashburn. Her remains were followed to the grave by a large concourse of sorrowing friends, and laid to rest in the family lot, by the side of husband and other kindred, who preceded her to the spirit land.

She was an excellent woman in all the relations of life.
