Death of Mr. Wellons.
Last Sunday morning, just as
the darkness of night was giving
place to the light of a new day,
the soul of Mr. E. Shelley Wel
lons passed from time to eternity,
at his home in Perry.
About four weeks ago he was
prostrated by an attack of bilious
lagrippe, and . gradually grew
weaker until death came.
At the Perry Baptist church the
funeral service, beginning at 8:80
Monday afternoon, was conducted
by Rev.- J. 0. Brewton ©LCordele,
formerly pastor of this church. He
preached an impressive and com
forting sermon from a double
text; “Blessed are they who die
in the Lord,—To die is Gain.”
The floral offerings were many,
and very beautiful. Every seat
in the church was occupied. Rev.
W. J. Holtzclaw, pastor of the
church, was unavoidably absent,
attending a Convention in Atlan
ta.
As a mark of special honor, and
respect, the teachers and pupils
of Perry Public School attended
the’ funeral in a body.
The burial was in Evergreen
Cemetery Monday afternoon, at
tended by the family, other rel
atives and friends from all sec
tions of the county.
He was born in Crawford coun
ty fifty-one years ago, was married
to Miss N. L. Blewster on Jan
uary 26,1861, and about that time
he became a citizen of Houston
county. For several years he
taught school. Afterwards he
was elected clerk of Houston Su
perior Court, and was 8 times re
elected. Then he served several
terms as County School Commis
sioner. At the time of his death,
he was a deacon of the Perry Bap
tist church, an alderman of Perry,
and a member of the Perry Board
of education.
A man of considerable native
talent and acquired knowledge, he
was firm in his convictions, true
and faithfhlto every duty, assum
ed or imposed. Mr. Wellons was
a true man in every respect, doing
at all times that which he belived
to be right, a Christian, an active
and progressive citizen, a good
neighbor, a steadfast friend.
A truly good man has been call
ed to his eternal reward.
The bereaved family consists of
the devoted wife, two sons and
five daughters; and then the aged
mother and three sisters. To
these the tenderest ympathy of
their many friends is sincerely
extended.
Death Of Mr. Barker.
Kunz—Digsby.
Last Friday, January 25th, Mr.
William M. Barker died "at *his
home in the lower 5th district,
near Feagin’s mill. Though he
had been in feeble health several
months, quite sick part of the
time, he died suddenly, sitting in
his chair at the time.
He was about 67 years old, an
excellent man, true and steadfast
as a friend and neighbor.
He leaves a devoted wife, one
son, one daughter, several grand
children and four brothers, and
with these bereaved many friends
sympathise.

Old Man At Work.
Editor Journal:—
I desire to report a fact that
ought to encourage the young col
ored men to be industrous and
true.
An old man who now feeds my
horse, draws water, etc,, worked
with me and under my direction
more than 50 years. That old
man is Archy Ross. He is very
old, but being unwilling to live in
idleness, he applied to me for
work, and I employed him.
