Benninghoff and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Martin and son, Tom; C. R. Noe, Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Palmer and Mr. and Mrs. Will Hogue went to Augusta, June 9 to attend Jacob King’s funeral. For many years Mr. and Mrs. Jacob King were residents of Leon and endeared themselves to the hearts of all. “Uncle Jake,” as he was familiarly called, always had a cheery greeting for every one and his life was a benediction, so sweet, so pure and noble that one always felt better who had spent a few hours listening to him. A few months ago they decided to build a cottage near Mr. and Mrs. John Butts of Augusta and they had just finished and occupied their beautiful modern home when Mr. King was taken with pneumonia from which he never rallied. The human heart cries out in loneliness there is in the deep Christian heart thanksgiving for such a noble Christian life here and a life together beyond the grave.
