Word was received here last week of the death of Mr. Wm. A. Carney at his home in Atmore, Ala. Mr. Carney was the father of Mrs. Kenneth Bruce and well-known to many of our people, and in his demise his state and community has lost a valuable citizen. While unostentious in his charities was a true philanthrophist, and there were many who he aided over the rough places in life who will mourn his loss as that of a father. He was largely interested in the development of south Alabama, and his keen foresight had brought him large returns.
Our deepest sympathy is extended to his bereaved ones.
