The Marietta Journal  September 15, 1904
Mr John H BATE, a former merchant of Marietta, died in San Antonio, Texas, on
last Saturday night, aged 44 years.  Mr BATE went to Colorado three years ago to
recuperate his health and returned home about a year and nine months ago and
sold his jewelry business here and moved with his family to Kerrville, Texas,
where he resided one year and then moved to San Antonio where he and family
bought a home and have resided there since.  Mr BATE had lung trouble, and for a
while he was benefitted by removal west but the insidious disease finally
resulted in his death.

Mr BATE leaves a wife and seven children, four girls and three boys.

Mr BATE was born and raised in Acworth, where he as a merchant succeeded
admirably.  Moving to Marietta he opened a jewelry store and made money rapidly.
 At the time of his death he was worth considerable property, owning valuable
real estate in Marietta.  He leaves an insurance of $30,000.

He married the daughter of Rev Elam CHRISTIAN, of this place.  Mr BATE was a
member of the Methodist church and at the time he went West was Alderman of the
city.  He was safe, conservative, business man, quiet in demeanor and upright in
life.

The many friends of the deceased sympathise with the family in their bereavement.
