The Schley County News  Friday February 8, 1907  
MR. P.F. DIXON DEAD Mr. P.F. Dixon, one of Schley County's oldest
and most highly esteemed citizens died at an early hour at his
home here on last Tuesday night.  Mr. Dixon had been in very
feeble health for the past few years, though his very sudden
death came as the result of a slight stroke of paralysis several
days ago.  It would be useless for us to attempt an Eulogy on the
life of this good man, for his long citizenship and strong
character stands out so prominently before the people of this
county, that a feeble effort on our part to add laurels to his
useful career would fall far short of the purpose desired.  He
lived to the good old age of 84, and if he had an enemy in the
county, it was certainly not his fault that such existed.  He is
survived by an immediate family consisting of his wife and three
sons, namely, Messrs. L.W. Dixon, of LaCrosse, Olin Dixon, of
Americus and Claude Dixon, of this place.  The funeral services
were conducted from the home on Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
Rev. C.M Ledbetter officiating.  In the death of Mr. Dixon, the
News loses its oldest subscriber, and perhaps its most
appreciative one.

Burial was in Ellaville Cemetery.
