IN MEMORY OF J.C. WILLIAMS

Early in the morning of June the 5th, 1931, God in His infinite wisdom saw 
fit to speak to his faithful servant Bro. J.C. Williams and said it is 
enough, come up higher.

"Uncle Jesse" as he was generally known, came to this county from Carroll 
county, Georgia when a young man and had lived and reared his family in this 
community. He was an upright citizen and a true and faithful christian, 
having been a member of the church for 56 years and the greater part of this 
time, he was identified with the church at Macedonia at which place his 
remains were laid to rest. His place in church hardly ever being vacant 
during services.

He had reached the tottering age and had to lean upon his staff, but he was 
active in the work of the Lord. When there was work to be done at the church 
or cemetery or any charitable work, Uncle Jesse was among the first to help 
and we feel that he heard the Master say "thou hast been faithful over a few 
things, come, and I will make thee ruler over many." His presence in the 
church and his visits to our homes are going to be greatly missed but we 
know our loss is Heaven's gain.

He leaves a dear companion, Aunt Cindea, that is just as true and faithful 
as he was, and eight children and a host of grandchildren and friends to 
mourn his departure. Mr. and Mrs. D.H. Smith.
