KITCHENS AT TEXAS, GEORGIA Mr. A.J. Kitchens, long time merchant and farmer at Texas, Georgia, died last Thursday (10 Sept 1925) at his home at that place. He had been an invalid over seven years. He was 75 years of age and is survived by his wife and two daughters, who are Mrs. L.R. Jones of Roanoke and Mrs. C.M. Mickle of Texas, Georgia. The deceased was a member of the Methodist church and was prominent in the affairs of his county and community until his health failed. A large congregation was present at his home church Friday afternoon to witness the funeral services, which were conducted by Rev. N.H. Abernathy. >From "The Franklin News & Banner, Franklin, Heard County, Georgia Mr. A.J. Kitchens, one of the county's aged, wealthiest and most highly esteemed citizens, died at his home in the Texas community early yesterday. The telephone is out of order and we are unable to get any data as we go to press. Mr. Kitchens had been confined to his home for several years and for several weeks had been failing quite rapidly. The end was not unexpected, but cast a gloom over the entire county. Few men of means had more friends. He was for many years president of the Bank of Heard County and one of its largest stockholders. The interment will be at Prospect this afternoon, we learn.
