Elder J. A. O’Steen
Goes to His Reward. |
A telegram from Metter Satur
day afternoon brought the sad in
telligence of the sudden death of
Elder James A. O'Steen.
The Tribune’s information is
that Elder O’Steen, who was a
minister of the Primitive Baptist
faith, was attending a meeting at
a ehurch near Metter in Candler
county, and was delivering a mes
sage to the congregation when he
suddenly felt a faintness come over
him and asked one of the ministers,
on the stand with him, to catch
him. He sank into his bt'other
minister’s arms and expired, aged
about 6(i vears.
The funeral and interment was
on Monday in Bethany church
(Arabia) cemetery, in Clinch
county, where his wife had been
laid to rest just six weeks ago.
Elder Win. Tomlinson officiated.
The deceased was a member of a
large and influential family of that
name, scattered throughout South
Georgia, principally in Clinch
county where he was born and
reared. He was a son of Capt.
John R. O'Steen, of the Confeder
ate army,and was reared on aCliuch
county farm, and was one of a num
ber of brothers and sisters. This
family has, in the years gone by,
taken a large interest in the religi
ous, educational, social, political
and material interests of this sec
tion of country. The deceased
contented himself with a quiet
and unassuming life, his public
activity confined to proclaiming
the gospel of Jesus Christ. 11 is
life and examples have been for
good in all the communities in
which he lived —in Clinch, Coffee
and Bacon counties.
He is survived by seven children,
three daughters and four sons, viz:
Mesdauies Wm. Smith, of Pearson,
John 11. Higgs, of Douglas, and
Burrel Taylor, of Kissimmee, Fla.,
and Messrs. William, Riley, James
and Roma < (Steen.
Pafford Family Reunion.
It has been a question for in
quiry, since the death of Mr. Jesse
M. Pafford, whether or not the an
nual Pafford family reunion would
be suspended!
However, the Tribune has just
been assured that they would be
continued so long as there is a
member of the Hon. Rowan Pafford
family living. And hence it is an
nounced that the annual Pafford
family reunion will take place Ibis
year as usual at the old Spring
head (Pafford ) church on the first
Sunday in September.
These reunions are held in me
morium of lion. Rowan Pafford
who came to this section of Geor
gia from Hamilton county, Tennes
see, in the year of 1840 —or eighty
two years ago.
The meeting will begin at ten
o’clock in the morning and the
time will be occupied by a sermon
—preacher to be announced later —
and singing by all who care to join
in the service of song. The sing
ing may be interspersed with shot t
tal ks.
Everybody is cordially invited
to attend and carry well filled
baskets or boxes of something to
eat for the noon repast to be serv
ed on the ground.
Mr. M. A. Pafford will have
charge of the meeting t his year.
I)j\ and Mrs. Chas. W. Harwell,
of Atlanta, spent Sunday night
and a part of Monday at Hotel
Malone as guests of their friends,
Dr. and Mrs. Malone. He has
visited Pearson before, prior to
the burning of the old hotel, and
