11l Memoriam.
Brother L. J. Johnson is no more
On Saturday, the 12th day of June,
he passed to his long home. His
work is done, and at the end all was
quiet and serene. No man passed into
the happy beyond more eesly than
he —not a struggle, not a moan nor
a murmur —just ceased to breathe.
The writer was with him at the
last, and one thing I will long re
member. When he hardly knew
any one he clasped my hand, gazed
into my face, a gentle Masonic grip
was givien and answered, a gentle
smile spread over his face. His wife
asked teasingly to give her the grip.
Shaking his head he said softly,
“When necessary I will.” These
are the last audible words 1 remem
ber to have heard.
He is gone and his record is such
as you all know, for he was a wide
ly known man. Asa citizen he
was kind, obliging and sympathetic.
In his dealings with men he was
just and fair. He was a church
member, a devoted husband and a
loving and considerate father, a
meml>er of the order of Free and
Accepted Masons and in more than
one position he served his county.
Last, I nit not least, he served for a
number of years as a soldier fight
ing for a cause all true Southern
men thought was just and right.
The mother of < ur departed I r 'fli
er, Miss Mary Cruse, a native of
Virginia, was horn April!), I7!h,
moved with her parents to Wilkes
county, Georgia, when she was
about ten years old and was marri al
hi John F. Johnson about 1816.
She died March 26, 187 t. John F.
Johnson, the father, was horn in
IT'.)!)- lie was a native of North
Carolina, migrated to Georgia
when quite a boy. He died in
There was born to bless this iinii n
eight hoys and two girls —Jessie,
William, George, John, Lee J.,
Jerry, Richard, James M., Eliza
both and Sarah Ann —all of whom
are dead except J. M. Johnson.
L. J. Johnson was horn Septem
ber 12, IS;>2, departed this life
June 12, IVK)t), was liorn, lived and
died on the same farm. He was
married to Miss Mary Rogers the
sth day of October, 1854. There
was l>orii to them seven children,
all dead except three —J. W. John
son, of MeComb City,Miss.; Woodie
Johnson Wardlaw, of Marietta,
Ga., and Emma Johnson Wall, at
the old home place. Thegood wife
still lives to mourn for the departed .
Mr Johnson enlisted in the ser
vice of his country under Captain
W. L. Marlow, cavalry company
K, in 1862. He was with Morgan
on his famous raid through Ten
nessee and Kentuckey. Many were
the interesting stories of the war he
told. He was wounded in the right
ankle in a battle at Fisher’s Hill in
1864 and was taken from the field
by a young Virginian. He was in
the service of his country when
able to the close of the war- He
was elected treasurer of Jackson
county in reconstruction days and
served his county well for a long
time. In later years he served his
county as coroner.
In 1868 he joined the Missionary
Baptist church at the Academy and
when Union was organized moved
his rnetn!>ership there and lived a
consistent member to his passing
away.
He was made a Master Mason in
Rockwell lodge He took the E.
A. degree the third day of July,
1868. When Davidson lodge, No.
10:>, A. F. and A M., was instituted
he ci-ine in as a charter member
and lived in conformity to their
rules and regulations.
We can never forget the days
when these old men met at the
lodge on Saturday evening—-Bros.
L. J. Johnson, W. G. Steed, S.
j Bowman, L. L. Patrick, John Mill-
saps. Marsh Patman, J. A. Thomp
son, W. A. Bovd, Bobert Kenney,
W. R. Segars, W. S. Dunnahoo and
others, who told good stories of war
times and true stories of life as it
came in their way. Some of these
have stood out like giuding stars to
us-
They are passing away and soon
will come the time for others. Let
us be ready, boys, to join in that
chain that is fast gaining links in
the happy beyond, where there will
be no breaking, no adjourning of
lodges, where all will be peace, hap
piness and pleasure in that grand
lodge above and sing a song of
honor to the Worshipful Master.
Resolved, That in the death of
Brother L. J. Johnson the lodge
has lost a faithful and true member,
society, the church and the country
a true citizen-
Resolved, second, that a copy of
the above preamble and these res
olutions l>e furnished the family,
and that The Winder News and
Jackson Herald Ik* requested to
print same. W. J. Ross,

In Memory
Of Mrs- Nancy J. Gieui, who
departed this life May 27, FJO'J.
Mrs. Green before her marriage was
Miss Nancy J. Wilkins, daughter
of Samuel and Nancy W lkiiis-
She was horn on February
17, 1846, making her age 66 years
:’> months and 10 days. Early in
life she united with the Methodist
church at <>ld Concord in Walton
county and was baptized by the
minister, Rev. Florence. On De
esmber 20, 1870, she was marr.e I
to J. F. Green, of Wind*, r. After
her marriage she and her husband
united with the Christian church
at Mt. Vt rnon, under the preaching
of Rev. T. M. Foster. She leaves
a host of relative's and friends to
mourn their loss of her. The near
est relatives are her husband, J. F.
Green,and six children, !. L-Green,
who was called home from Lexing
ton, Ky.a short time Ix-fore her
death; John S. Green, Mrs. 1). P-
Fuller, of Winder; Messrs. Henry
and Sanford Green, of Social Circle;
Mrs. Josie Robertson,of Gainesville,
one daughter, little Climmie, having
preceded her to the better world
nearly ten years ago. She aiso
leaves two sisters and one brother,
Mrs. Amanda McAdams,of Dacula;
Mrs. Mattie O’Neal, of Birmingham,
Abi., and Samuel Morgan Wilkins,
of Axtell, Tex. She was a faithful
member of the church for about
forty-five years, during which time
she was always true to a just cause.
She was a member of the Ladies’
Aid Society of the Christian church.
Besides her loyalty to the Master,
she was ever kind to friends and
neighbors and strove for that peace
and friendship which surpasseth all
understanding. Never was a wife
and mother more devoted to hus-
Imnd and children than she. We
never heard her speak an evil word
of any one, hut she tried to aid and
help all in every way that she could.
She is missed in the home as wife
and mother, her place is vacant in
the church as a sister to the cause
for which Christ died. And while
ii is sad to part with her, let us re
alize that she is not dead, hut liv
ing and has only crossed over on
to the other shore. We say peace
to her ashes,and will follow her no
ble examples, that we may live and
spend eternity with her in the sweet
by and by. A Friend.
On a Train.
“Hey there!” yelled the con
ductor. “Why are you taking that
iixe and saw out of the case?”
“1 want to open a window,” re
plied the passenger.
