Mr. Lon Payne Passed
Away Last Saturday.
The death of Mr. J. A. Payne,
■which occurred at his home west
of McDonough on the Hampton
road last Saturday, removes an
other one of Henry county's well
known citizens and prominent
farmers.
Mr. Payne had been affected
some time with heart trouble,
which grew gradually worse,
causing much suffering a week or
two before the end came.
Mr. Payne was one of the best
of neighbors, a genial companion,
an enterprising, prosperous far
mer, and besides the bereaved
family leaves numerous friends
who regret his taking away.
In the presence of a very large
gathering, the tuneral occurred at
the Baptist church at 3 o’clock
Sunday afternoon, conducted by
Rev. Mr. Powell of Milner, a
special friend with whom the
deceased had been associated,
after which the remains were laid
to rest in McDonough cemetery.
Tribute of Respect.
The many friends of Mrs. J. G.
Banks were grieved to learn of
her death, which occurred at her
home near Hampton, Monday
evening, Sept. 1, at 9:30 o’clock.
Her sickness was of short dura
tion. While knowing she was in
declining health, her death came
as a shock to loved ones and
friends. She was a good woman
and was much loved in her com
munity and will be sorely missed.
She leaves a husband and seven
children and a host of other rela
tives to mourn her going away.
She was a faithful wife and a de
voted mother. She did her work
in the realm of home, and a splen
did work it was. We believe she
loved her Lord and was faithful
to her church and to all the duties
of life. She was sorely needed
here, but her Hevenly Father had
other plans for her, and we be
lieve she is now with Him at
home.
Our sympathy goes out to the
bereaved family, especially the
grief-stricken husband. May God
comfort and bind up their broken
hearts and draw them nearer to
Him through her going away.
Her body was laid to rest in
Liberty Hill cemetery Tuesday
afternoon, her pastor, Rev. J R.
Anderson, conducting the funeral
services.

CARD OF THANKS.
Mr. J. G. Banks and familn wish
to extend their heartfelt thanks to
their friends and neighbors for
their many acts of kindness dur
ing the passing to rest of their be
loved wife and mother, Mrs. J. G.
Banks, also for the beautiful floral
offerings.
Men give up a great deal for
their families—their time, their
strength, the knowledge they
have gained in life’s experiences
—they spend everything freely
for their home’s sake, and the
home should pay its debt in much
outspoken love.
Mothers, train your boys to be
neat in the house. They should
be taught to look after them
selves, and to keep their hats and
their coats in their proper places.
Teach them this habit and you
will also do a kindness to the boys
by teaching them neatness and
self- respect.
