The Home Journal (Perry, GA), Thursday, 27 January 1887, page 3, column 4
Death of Prof. F. N. Means
     Prof. Frank N. Means died Tuesday night at the residence of his father 
Mr. Wm. Means, at Spoonville in this county.  The cause of his death was 
typhoid dysentery, and he had been sick about three weeks.  The burial will 
take place at the family cemetery.
     Prof. Means was about 33 years old, a most excellent man in every 
respect.  He removed from Houston in 1881, and taught school at Eatonton.  He 
then came to Fort Valley and taught in 1885, and from there he went to 
Butler.  He was recently elected Principal of the College at Jonesboro, and 
was under contract to teach there.  He was very successful as a teacher, and 
had already won a position in the front rank of his chosen profession.  He was 
eminently a gentleman and a scholar, whose death will fill with sorrow the 
hearts of his many friends throughout the country.  He was truly held in high 
esteem by all who knew him.
     Besides the loving father and mother, a devoted wife and four children 
are rendered desolate by his death.  Many other relatives share in the 
bereavement.
     The tender sympathies of many friends are with the sorrowing ones in 
their loss.
     A good man has gone to his reward.
