Atlanta Constitution, 30 December 1897
An Old Mason Dead.

Professor John j. Bishop Found Dead in His Bed.

Dawsonville, Ga., December 29-
Professor John J. Bishop, of this county, was found dead in bed this morning.  
It is supposed that a second stroke of paralysis caused his death.  Not arising 
as usual, his family went to call him up and were shocked to find him dead.  He 
ate a hearty supper the evening before, not complaining more than common.  He 
had a stroke seven or eight years ago, but continued going around some until 
recently, when he was confined to the house.  He was near seventy years old, 
had been married twice,was the father of about thirteen children, and had been 
a Mason for forty-five years and a member of the Methodist church for many 
years.
