J.N. Hudson, of Schley county, died at his home near Ellaville, on Friday night, after a protracted illness. One of the saddest scenes ever witnessed was enacted at his bedside Monday of last week. He had suddenly roused up from a long stupor, and called his wife and children to his bedside. With words of love and tenderness he bade them goodbye, blessing and giving his dying benediction to each one. He took his little baby in his arms, and with tears in his eyes and a faltering voice, kissed it and returned it to its mother's arms, giving her clear and explicit directions as to the way he would like it reared, told them how he would like to be buried, and the disposition on his property. After it was all over he quietly turned over and sank into unconsciousness, from which he awakened a few minutes the nest morning.
