Deacons of the church and members of his Sunday School class acted as an honorary escort. Mr. Huguley, bom near Washing ton in Wilkes County, Ga., on Oc tober 14, 1861, the son of the late W. W. Huguley and Sarah Bunch, was in his 74th year. Before mov ing to McCormick, he conducted a mercantile business in Washington and had farming interests near Tignall, Ga., for a number of years. He moved here in 1900, and had carried on, a general mercantile business since that time. He was one of the oldest active merchants in the county at the time of his passing. Having been a member of the Baptist Church since childr hood, he had served the McCor mick Baptist Church as deacon and treasurer for a number of years, and took an active part in all relig ious affairs. Mr. Huguley had never attempted to hold public office, but devoted himself to the church and his fam ily. His consistent Christian ahar- acter, amiable disposition and kindly manner endeared him to all with whom he came in contact, and a wide circle of friends, rela tives and acquaintances will deep ly mourn his passing.
