TEXT OF OBITUARY: (May 05, 1920) ALLEN TWEED DIES VERY SUDDENLY Farmer of Jonesville Falls Between Plow Handles, Dying Instantly. (Special to The Herald.) Jonesville, May 4.--Allen Tweed died suddenly yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock. He will be buried today at Bethlehem Methodist Church, near Flat Rock. Mr. Tweed had been in failing health for several months, but was able to be about his accustomed affairs. At the time of his death he was ploughing in a field near his home. His son was ploughing in the field and was with his father when he fell. Mr. Tweed ate a hearty dinner and seemed to be feeling unusually well. He died instantly, falling between his plough handles. A rather singular thing in connection with Mr. Tweed's death is that his mother, grandmother and a brother all died suddenly. His brother, Mr. Jim Tweed, died here about a year and a half ago while weighing cotton on the town platform. The deceased would have been 60 years old next month. He leaves a wife, who before marriage was Miss Rhoda Mabry, and several children. Three of his sons saw service overseas, and one son, Wofford, is still in the army and will not reach home for the funeral . Mr. Thomas Tweed, of Lockhart Junction, is a brother of the deceased. Mr. Tweed was an honest hard-working man and numbered his friends by the score. He was a consistent member of the Methodist church. The sudden death of Mr. Tweed has cast a gleam over his community.
