Middle Ga. Argus – Week of June 4, 1894
Hon. James G. Phinazee, of Monroe County was in Atlanta on yesterday.  Mr. 
Phinazee is one of Monroe county’s best citizens.  He was for several years a 
representative from Monroe County in the Georgia legislature and has held other 
offices of trust and honor.  He was chairman of the board of commissioners of 
roads and revenues in Monroe for a number of years and was largely instrumental 
in placing the affairs of the county on a safe basis, bringing order out of 
confusion which resulted from waste and extravagance of reconstruction times.

His counsel and advice are called for now whenever Monroe’s interests are at 
stake.  His long life of usefulness promises to be prolonged for many years 
yet. – Atlanta Journal

Mr. Phinazee, the gentleman referred to above, is an uncle of our famous custom 
buyer, Mrs. Asa Smith, who has a deephold on the affections of our people.  Mr. 
Phinazee was consulted just before the gubernatorial nomination and this grand 
old man stood then like Monroe does now.
