"The Carroll County Times"
Carrollton, Carroll Co., Georgia

NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, FEBRUARY 17, 1882

STATE News

The Franklin News of the 8th inst., announces the death of Dr. Joseph M. Lane, 
an old citizen of Heard county. Dr. Lane was of distinguished lineage, being a 
nephew of Gen. Joe Lane of Oregon and a brother of Gov. Colquitt's mother, 
thus being the uncle of the Governor. 

The News in noticing his death says: "He was worthy of his high lineage. He 
ever took a zealous interest in everything that concerned the public welfare 
and is fellow citizens have frequently shown their appreciation of his ability 
and his integrity by placing him in offices of trust. His voice will be heard 
in the public councils no more. But while the loss sustained by the public 
will be deeply felt, it is as nothing compared to that of those who knew him 
in the nearer relationship of home. Their loss is immeasurable, irreparable. 
We can but commend them to the source of all consolation."
