Died

The spirit of Mr. John Maxwell winged its flight to the Heavenly home on 
Tuesday, at noon, in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Maxwell.

Mr. Maxwell had been ill for some months.  Many years ago he lived in 
Talbotton, then removed to Columbus, where he married Miss Claudia Howard, who 
passed away several years ago.  For a number of years Mr. Maxwell traveled and 
was one of the most genial and popular men on the road.  All who knew him loved 
and esteemed him.  While connected with the AB&A Railroad, his health failed 
entirely and he retired to his boyhood home to rest and recuperate, but in 
vain, disease laid its insidious hand upon him.  He sleeps near his old home in 
the family’s hallowed grounds.  Many friends and relatives were present to pay 
a last loving tribute.

Rev. N.C. Underwood and J.G. Harrison pronounced the last sad rites.  Many 
friends in town and county grieve at the passing of this genial whole-souled 
gentleman, and deepest sympathy goes out to the bereaved son and daughter who 
survive him.
