Mrs. Mitchell Dead

Mrs. Jane Mitchell, of Barnesville, the mother of Capt. and Robt.
Mitchell, Mrs. Kendall, [and] Mrs. R.J. Powell, died on May 1st.

Mrs. Mitchell was in her 86th year, [and] was a noble type of Christian
womanhood.

The readers of The Journal will remember a sketch that appeared in these
columns last year in regard to the prominent part taken by the Mitchell
family in shaping the interest of the county.

Mrs. Mitchell leaves worthy children and a host of friends to cherish
her memory and profit by emulating her virtues.
