From His Home Paper.
The following notice is taken
from the Athens Banner, of July
11 where Mr. Birchmore resided:
"Athens inexpressibly sad
dened and shocked yesterday morn
ing at an early hour to learn of
the tragic death of Mr. Charlie
Birchmore, whose death occurred
sometime between midnight and 4
o'clock in Atlanta ? resulting from a
fall from the seventh floor window
of the Fickwick apartment house,
where he had a room for several
days.
"The story of his tragic death is
told in the accounts of the after
noon papers of Atlanta of yester
day. Mr. BlTchmore, his frlen
here state, frequently walked in
his sleep. It is known that a short
time ago he was seized with a
fainting spell while in the elevator
of the Southern Mutual Building
and it was with difficulty that he
was resuscitated. It is believed
that when he went to tlio window
for a breath of fresh air one of
these attacks seized him and he
fell out of the casement.
"Than Charlie Birchmore there
was never a more loyal friend, a
cleverer conversationalist, a more
companionable associate. He was
for sixteen years in the office of
Judge McWhorter as his confident
ial secretary and holding that posi
tion was a tribute to his discretion,
his efficiency, ; his ability. Hun
dreds here will mourn his death as
that of a brother and very dear
friend.
