DEATH OFJJOLLY WHITE.
This community was inexpressibly
shook ed and saddened this week, by
tbe sndden aiukness and deatb of Miss
Dolly White, a beloved member of
tbe sophomore class in tha High
sobool, and who baa spent ber short
life in Athena and vioinity.
Dolly attended sohool all last week,
and Friday evening preotioed io tbe
basket tall team aa nsual. Monday
moining she was taken ill with a psin
in bei bead, wbiob rapidly dnveloped
into spinal meningitis, and abe passed
away Tuesday moining, at five o'clock.
It ia thought tbat an injury wbiob
abe reoeived in an automobile aool
dent about a year and a half ago, in
which shs remained nnoonsoioos for
several weeks with concussion of tbe
breio, waa probably a factor in tbe
yonng girl's fatal illness.
Dolly wai aged 17 years, seven
months and eighteen days, and was
the idol of bsr mother, Mrs. uosetta
White, and of ber Bve biotbera. 8he
