I DEATH OF MB. S. A. NETTLES.
, Sketch of the Life of this Good
Man and Trne.
, Soon after The Record had j?one
to press last Thursday afternoon .the
' sad announcement of the death of
Mr- Comnol A WpttlpQ pump tn nnr
IUI UUIilWVl **. ?...
office. He had - passed peacefully
away about 3 o'clock at the family
home on South Academy street after
f a week or more of intense suffering.
r Mr Nettles had been in impaired
> health for several years, but possess?
ed of a remarkably strong constitu.
tion, he had pulled through a num.
ber of attacks that brought him to
, a bed of suffering. Recovering from
. these attacks, he would go about his
? business again, and apparently un>
mindful at all times of the dangers
. that constantly beset his failing en;
ergy, he appeared cheerful and
. happy.
Mr Nettles, was born in Sumter
April 5, 1855, and was the fifth son
* of the late Mr S A Nettles, of that
place. In his childhood his parents
moved to Lane, where the deceased
was reared and spent the greater
part of his life, his father being for
_ _ -1?? J
twenty years or more a division superintendent
of the Atlantic Coast
Line railroad company, with headquarters
at that place. In later
years,and in fact up to his last days,
there was no spot quite so dear to
Mr Nettles' heart as his old homeLane?and
he loved her people with
all the strength of his heart.
About six years ago he gave up
the hotel business at Lane and moved
to Lake City and shortly afterward
to Kingstree, where he and his most
estimable family have since made
their home. In 1911 he opened the
Nettles hotel, near the depot, and
later became proprietor of theKellaI
han hotel, which he conducted until
i about two years ago, when ill health
; forced him to retire from the hotel
business.
Mr Nettles was a man of exemplary
character. His personality was
pleasing to a degree not usuallyfound
in men. He was sympathetic
and generous to a fault, as tenderhearted
as a child. He was a faithi
ful Christian and a devoted husband
i and father.
He is survived by his wife and
i five children: Miss Mary S Nettles,
; Mrs R W Lewis and Mrs M A Sbu!
ler and Messrs Jesse and Samuel
I Nettles, all of this place. Three brothers
and one sister also survive:
Messrs Thos Nettles, Sumter; J M
Nettles, Alcolu; William Nettles,
j Memphis, Tenn, and Mrs Rebecca
China, Charleston, besides a lar^e
circle of other relatives,
j The funeral services took place at
the Baptist church Friday at 3 p.m.,
1 conducted by his pastor. Rev A E
Riemer,and the remains were laid to
rest in the Williamsburg cemetery
? by the side of his dautrht^r. Miss
