Danielsville Monitor, 6 Apr 1906
    It is with feelings of the most profound sorrow that we chronicle the death 
of Hon. I. J. Meadow, which occurred at his home in Comer Monday afternoon.  He 
had been in declining health for two years past and his death was not 
unexpected, but was no less a crushing blow to his family and relatives when it 
came.  Mr. Meadow was a noble veteran of the "Lost Cause," having entered the 
Confederate army as a private and coming out as a lieutenant.  He was a man of 
strong character -- a natural leader -- and had been county treasurer, member 
of the legislature, deputy collector of the internal revenue, and had held many 
other positions of trust and honor, in all of which he showed no unwavering 
fidelity to duty and a sturdy integrity which proved him to be that noblest 
work of God -- an honest man.  He was a public spirited citizen, ever awake to 
the best interests of his county and society and always manifested a deep 
interest in the welfare of his friends and neighbors contributing cheerfully, 
to the extent of his ability, to the ___________of human suffering and 
trials; ;and therefore our people, both individually and colectively, feel that 
in this death  they have lost a true and valued friend and his demise will be 
sincerely mourned.   He had been for a number of years an acceptable and 
valuable member of the Methodist church and adorned the profession, he had made 
by an upright, faithful and humble Christian life.  He was devoted to his wife 
and children and they have lost their best earthly friend.  He was 67 years 
old, and his remains were buried in the cemetery here Tuesday afternoon - Revs. 
Nunn and Pharr conducting the funeral services.  We believe that his glorious 
spirit is now an occupant of that 'house not made with hands, eternal in the 
heavens."  May God richly bless and comfort with His grace, the heart broken 
wife, children and other relatives, and may they derive consolation from the 
thought that there is now one tie less to bind them to earth, one more to draw 
them to heaven.
