MRS. J.G. SANDERS [sic] BURIED HERE TODAY

	Mrs. J.G. Saunders, prominent and pioneer resident of Lowndes county, 
who once resided in Brunswick, died yesterday afternoon at the home of Dr. and 
Mrs. J.P. Prescott, near Valdosta, and she was buried here at 4 o’clock this 
afternoon beside her husband, who died and was buried here several years ago.  
The funeral here was in charge of Mortician Edo Miller and followed funeral 
services conducted at the Lake Park Methodist church this morning.
	Mrs. Saunders was the widow of the late J.G. Saunders, of Lake Park, a 
pioneer in the development of the peanut industry in south Georgia into 
commercial importance.  Since his death Mrs. Saunders continued to make her 
home at Lake Park, where she was influential in the religious life of that 
community.  She is survived by one sister, Mrs. Annie Hughes, Miami, Fla., and 
a number of nieces and nephews, Rev. J.W. Hitch, presiding elder of the 
Valdosta Methodist district, and formerly of Savannah, being among them.
