John J. Landers aged sixty- eight years, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Leslie Power, in Phoenix, Arizona, Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Landers was one of
our best known citizens but had been in ill health for a number of years.

He was identified with the business and civic life of Benton for a number of
years and was numbered with the most highly respected citizens. Years ago,
together with his brother, A. T. Landers he was engaged in the furniture and
undertaking business, selling out to the Benton Furniture and Undertaking Co.,
and taking a position as funeral director, remaining with the firm several
years.
