The Pike County Journal. Zebulon, Pike County, Georgia, February 11, 1898

Mr. C.G. Driver Passes Away

Mr. Chas. G. Driver, who is well known to nearly all our readers, died at 
Griffin Wednesday morning.

He was a native of Pike county and numbered his friends here by the score. Up 
until a few years ago, he was a citizen of Zebulon and was one of the prime 
movers in nearly every business enterprise.

A number of times he was elected to positions of trust by the people, which he 
filled with honor to himself and the county.

For the past two years, Mr. Driver has been teaching school in this county but 
on account of his health he was compelled to give it up. He moved to Griffin 
about two months ago with the hope of regaining his health and also for the 
purpose of placing his children in a good school. He continued to grow worse, 
however, until the end.

The funeral services occurred at the Baptist church here yesterday, conducted 
by Rev. D.J. Christian, of Griffin, after which the remains were interred in 
the Caldwell lot.

Mr. Driver leaves a wife and seven children. The sympathy of our people is 
extended to them.
