The Pike County Journal.
Zebulon, Pike County, Georgia, Mar. 6, 1896

The Journal is sorry to note the death of Mr. John Means, which occurred
at his home near Meansville last Friday morning. He was 84 years of age
and general prostration was the cause of his death. Mr. Means was a man
who was respected and esteemed wherever he was known. He was honest and
honorable in all transactions with his fellow man, and in his death the
county has lost one of its best and purest man.
