Funeral of Mr. J.B. Peterman Will Be Conducted Today

Mr. J.B. Peterman, age about 75 years, died at the Georgia Sanitarium Tuesday
afternoon at five o’clock after a lingering illness lasting many days.  His
remains were brought to Butler Wednesday afternoon and are to be interred this
afternoon at the Midway cemetery, the funeral service to be conducted by his
life-long friend, Rev. J.T. Adams.

Mr. Peterman had been a resident of Taylor County for the past 50 years and was
well known throughout the county, and was honored and respected by all who knew
him.  He was not only a prominent member of the Missionary Baptist church at
Midway, but he was true and faithful in the discharge of his Christian duties to
his neighbor, his family, to his church and to his God.

Mr. Peterman enlisted in Company G, 6th Georgia regiment September 1862 and was
honorably discharged in April 1865.  He loved the cause of the Confederacy but
when the stars and bars were furled for the last time, then he became loyal
again to the Stars and Stripes.

Mr. Peterman is survived, besides, his widow, eight children, as follows:
Messrs. T.J., J.H., C.J., L.E. and Bennie Peterman, Mrs. Homer Emerson, Mrs.
Will Ellington and Mrs. I.O. Cox. In addition to his relatives, Mr. Peterman is
survived by a large number of strong friends who tender their sympathy to the
bereaved family in this, their hour of sadness.
