Death of a Good Man

Into a home of love and happiness on last Thursday morning, the spirit of Rev. 
John Harris was borne from earth to heaven.  The work of this man was finished, 
having attained his four score and ten years, and served many years in 
preaching God’s word in the ministry of the Missionary Baptist Church.  The 
long, weary months of illness were endured with patience, and as the end drew 
nigh and the glory of immortality burst over his vision, rapture filled his 
soul, and the pangs of death were lost in victory.  Fully realizing that 
he “had done what he could”, he expressed a desire to be re-united with that 
beloved companion who preceded several years to the glory land.

The deceased leaves a son, Mr. Dixie Harris, several daughters, Mrs. O.V. 
Fuller, of Abbeville, Ga., Mrs. R.S. Sparks, Mrs. C.F. Carter, Mrs. E.A. 
Fuller, Mrs. J.M. Robertson and Miss Leila Harris, whose untiring devotion to 
her father was beautiful.  A good many grand and great grandchildren also mourn 
the loss of this good man.  The funeral services were conducted by Rev. 
Underwood at Valley Grove Church, where the deceased was almost a lifetime 
member.
