COL. J.E. GORDON DIES

The death of Col. Jno. E. Gordon of Danielsville, Sunday at noon, 
while was expected, yet was quite a shock to his family and the 
community.  Col, Gordon came to Danielsville about the year 
1875 and established himself in business, and made  many friends 
in this his adopted home, having been born in Franklin county.  In 
the year 1885, he read law in the office of the late Judge David 
W. Meadow, and was admitted to the bar here in March term of 
the Superior Court in 1886 anad has been in the active practice 
here since, until about two years ago when his health gave way.  
He was the oldest practitioner of the Danielsville bar.

He was Treasurer of his county for several terms and was held in 
high esteem by his many friends, as a man and a lawyer.

He was about 70 years of age at the time of his death and a member 
of the Methodist church.

He was buried here Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock the funeral 
services being conducted from the Methodist church, by his pastor, 
Rev. A. M. Spraybberry.

He leaves a wife and eight children--four boys and four girls, and 
a brother, as well as a large number of other relatives and friends 
to mourn his death.  All of whom have our deepest sympathy in the 
loss of the husband, father and friend.

Atlanta: S. F. Glenn of Rochelle, Ga.; W.M. Glenn of Greenville; and
