Letter Consolation to Bereaved Family.
Savannah, Ga.,
Nov. 23, 1922.
Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Johnson and
Famiiy:-
Dear Cousins—
With much regret I learned of
the trouble you all have had re
cently, and at the greatest of my
sorrow I read of Johnnie’s death
in the Savannah papers several |
week’s ago. Last Sunday’s Morn
ing News carried a picture of
Johnnie and the girl he was to
wed.
I clipped out two or three and
lam sending you one. It is very
much like dear Johnnie and I did
not know if you all had one of
his pictures out of the paper or
not. The young lady’s picture
is beautiful.
With a heart of agony I read
of Johnnie’s death and my eyes
filled with tears. I thought of
the times we use to play together
with my younger brother, Wil
liam, and Dewey Crosby at Hel
ena. Then too, again, I thought
of the time Johnnie and I would
go to Mcßae and as he would
chew tobacco so I would take a
chew with him and it would make
me dreadfully sick. And yet,j
again, I think of the times we
would be together at Uvalda.
But he is more in my memory—
the last time I saw him—at the
blacksmith shop, when I was in
Uvalda the time my brother
Tom’s baby died. The day I
went to leave I talked with John
nie a long while at the back door
of the shop. He said he was
coming to Savannah and stay two
or three days with me. How well
I remember the last words he
said to me. I always loved John-!
nie from the beginning and I
shall always hold him in my
memory for the hours I spent
with him ever as a jewel of price
less worth. He shall never be
forgotten.
You all have my heart’s sym
pathy, and I trust that you all t
will be consoled with the conso
lation that “Johnnie is at rest,’’
for he was a good boy. And
again you can find joy in the
thought and fact that your boy
gave his life to save his father.
Remember the Bible says,
“Greater love hath no man than 1
I this that a man lay down his life]
I for his friend.” And Johnnie
laid down his life for the protec
tion of his father.
If I should have been nearer I
would have stayed beside John
nie until the last—for I loved
him. He was my cousin and
friend and I was his.
Let us live so that when our
summons comes from on High |
that we will be together with alii
Christ’s Redeemed, and let us be:
like Johnnie, ready to sacrifice
all we have for the protection of
father, mother, sister, brother,
relatives or friends—and Johnnie
did that. He gave all that he
might protect those nearest and
dearest to him. He was faithful
to the end. God bless his mem
ory and give you all peace, com
fort and protection. I am as
ever,
, Johnnie’s Friend and Cousin,
Johnnie A Sharpe,
