The Breeze – August 31, 1911 – Page 5

Green Williams dies suddenly.

The community was shocked yesterday morning by the announcement of the sudden death of Green Williams, who fell from the window of his mother’s residence on 12th St. while suffering from a hemorrage. He had evidently had one attack during the night, and early this morning had another and went to the window, and his mother who was in the yard saw him fall, but the force of the fall broke his neck, and nothing could be done for him.

He had been in poor health for a number of years, but pluckily stuck to his work until a few weeks ago when he came home from Pensacola where he had been employed in Hughey’s Restaurant.

He was a model young man, and liked by all who knew him. The funeral will be held today.
