Loving Tribute To The Memory of
Judge J. B. Estes.
John Baylus Estes is dead:
It is with the deepest pang of sor
row that I write the sentence. He
was mv life-long friend. We were as
sociated as teacher, scholar, school
mates, citizens, friends, for fifty years
and, at no time, did any shadow of
personal difference ever arise between
ns. He was a bright m*n, polite, con
siderate, good hearted and always on
the side of right. He was my ideal of
a gentleman and I loved him. He was
a devoted husband apl father and his
home was his kingdom. He was lav
ishly endowed bv nature with those
traits and qualifications which make
leaders among* men; no wonder then
he was constantly called on through
his long useful life by bis fellow cit
izens to fill positions of honor, trust
and responsibility, and these he al-
wavs discharged with distinguished
fidelity aud in a manner that reflected
credit upon the selection.
The small foibles incident to human
nature, were dwarfed in him and over
shadowed by the noble traits of the
honorable citizen and gentleman, and
the world is better for his having lived
in it.
