Carnesville Herald  Feb. 1952
Funeral services for Mrs. Ben H. (Jane Anna Williams) Dickson, 82, a well-
known resident of Carnesville and Franklin County, were held today (Thursday) 
at the Carnesville Baptist Church with Rev. A. B. Couch, Rev. G. F. Wilson and 
Rev. Homer J. Fussell officiating.  Burial was in Hunters Creek Baptist Church 
cemetery.
 She was a daughter of the late Henry J. and Diadem E. Williams, a well-known 
family in Franklin County.  She was a member of Hunters Creek Baptist Church.
Carnesvillle was shocked with grief early Wednesday morning to learn that Mrs. 
Dickson had died of a heart attack at 6 oclock.  Tuesday morning she had a 
most severe attack.  As related in her own words, "I was hurting bad enough 
that I'd been glad to get relief even--to die.  Ben wanted to go for somebody, 
but I was afraid he'd fall so I said, "we'll just trust in the Lord till day 
time."  Dr. E. T. Poole was Lavonia was called Tuesday morning and came 
immediately.  He found her up and about her household duties - calm and 
cheerful.
The second seizure was too great for her tired heart.  Her going must have 
been peaceful for she "was not afraid to die".
With a heart overflowing with love, it is no wonder that Mrs. Dickson's death 
has touched, with sorrow, many people, both white and colored.
Survivors, in addition to her husband, Benjamin Harrison Dickson, include 2 
daughters:  Mrs. Nancy E. Loden of Athens and Mrs. W. E. (Leona) Wilson of 
Lavonia.   4 sons:  John S. Dickson of Atlanta; Jeptha W. Dickson of Ft. 
Pierce, Fla; Henry S. Dickson of Lilburn; and Jim H. Dickson of Royston.  3 
sisters:  Mrs. E. T. (Sanannah) Poole of Lavonia; Mrs. Carlton P. (Essie) 
Sanders of Winder; Mrs. T. P. Isbell of Orlando, Fla.  5 brothers:  H. M. and 
Lum Williams of Eastanollee; Will W. Williams of Carnesville; Sam S. Williams 
and Uriah Williams of Mize, GA.
B. D. Ginn in charge of arrangements.
