Athens, Ga., May 26- John Jackson, a brother of Hon. Isa Jackson, the ordinary of the county, died here yesterday at 6 o'clock, from the effects of a lengthy paralysis. The deceased was born in Jackson county seventy-eight years ago. For many years he was one of the great, prominent and successful farmers in this section, only giving it up when extreme old age overtook him. Eight months ago he was stricken with paralysis, and he has lingered on, waiting patiently for the end. He leaves several sons and daughters, all grown and married. His remains were carried to Jackson county today by private conveyance, there to be interred in the family burying ground.
