I To Friendship Lodge No. 85, I Knights of Pythias, i Your committee to report suit able resolutions commemorative i of the life and character of ! James Morris Stovall, beg to submit the following report: i Brother Stovall was born in | Franklin county, Georgia, in the | year 1876; and after completing j his education in the high schools I of that county in the town ot Lavonia, he entered college at j the age of twenty-two. Graduat- | ing a few years later, he return ed trom Nashville, Tenn., com- ; ing back to his native state, | where he entered enthusiastically 1 in the profession of teaching, in which profession he rapidly gained a wide recognition and ! soon became one of the acknowl- j edged leaders in the cause of ! education, to which work he de- [ voted thirteen years of active, 1 useful service, eleven years of i which time was spent in the ! schools of this county and the adjoining county of Grady. Five ! years of this time he served as | superintendent of the Donalson- vilie High School, which instittu- I tion he raised to a high state of j efficiency. I His mind was well adapted to I the profession he selected. He was elevated and advanced in his ideas, and his stern integr ity and devotion to truth gave great power to his lofty intell- enct. He was clear and vigor ous of mind and strong in body, but thirteeen years of unceasing work undermined his strength and his failing health compelled him to abandon the work to which he had devoted his' lite and in which his life was finally sacrificed. He died April 19th, 1916 and was buried the follow’- ing day at Whigham, Ga., with masonic honors. The large congregation of de voted relatives and admiring friends that followed his funeral car to the cemetary in strong at testation of the high respect, esteem and love in which he was held by those who knew him best. His forty years of active life was crowded with deeds of kind ness and works of love and was illuminated with a pure, unsel fish devotion to duty, As of the Master, we can say of our de parted brother: ‘ He went about doing good; and that consolation which comes only through duty nobly done was his comfort and support to the last, as shown by his beautiful testimony of his final hours on earth. I have fought a good fight, I have finis- ed my course, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteous ness.” On June 3, 1906 Mr. [Stovall married Miss Mattie Funder- burke, of this county, and four children came to bless this union, one of whom, little James Morris Jr., rests with his father in a better world; leaving three to comfort and brighten their widowed mothers life. We would enter with decided hesitancy and extreme delicacy into the sacred precincts of his home, into which there can now come no human sympathy commensurate with the great sorrow so re cently befallen them, but here his genial ‘and afectionate nature shone with peculiar brilliancy, shedding happiness and joy over a home in which he was greatly blessed. With his soul breathed out in prayer, we leave our departed brother Stovall with his God, and submit the soliovving resolu tions: Resolved, That we extend our deepest and most tender sym pathy to his widow and other loved ones in their hour of sor row—a sorrow we deeply share. Resolved, That the hand of death which has so recently stricken the name of James Morris Stovall trom the roll of the living, leaves not upon our records a more perfect model of a true Pyhian Knight and Christ ian gentleman, and leaves no man more true in the practice of virture and the pursuit and vin dication of truth and none more liberal in the service of his fel low-men nor-more royal in his church relations. Resolved, That in the death of this good man this lodge loses one of its strongest members, the cause of education, one of staunchest friends and most liberal conti ibutors, the chbrch one of her true and loyal sup porters and the general public, one of its most perfect models of Christian manhood. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be made a part of the records of this lodge, a copy be presented Mrs. Stovall for *:he famailv and copies be furnishen the newspapers of Decatur and Grady counties and ol the town of Lavonia for publi cation.
