The Henry County Weekly, February 2, 1894
Judge Stewart Dead
     Judge John D. Stewart died at his home in Griffin, at 7:45 o’clock last 
Sunday night.
     It was well known that he had been sick for a long while, and his death 
was not unexpected. Judge Stewart was one of Georgia’s truest and best men, who 
coming from the humble walks of life, not only won brilliant success, but the 
genuine respect and esteem of all classes of men. His friends were numberless 
in Henry County, where he was loved with true devotion, and his death is 
sincerely mourned.
     During the funeral services of Judge Stewart, it is said that every class 
of business in Griffin, even to the huckster stands, were closed, and those who 
daily toiled for a subsistence were as sincere in their grief and tribute of 
tears to his memory as the riches in the land. All honored and respected him.
     He was 61 years of age.
     For the benefit of his many friends in this section, the next issue of THE 
WEEKLY will contain a sketch of his life.
