Jessie Hicks, son of James Hicks, of this place, was the victim. He had been complaining some time with his heart and on this day said he felt much better and was out around the cane mill and probably helped his boys haul two loads of cane during the day and at night at supper thanked the Lord that he had been spared another day. After supper he complained of eating too much and stepped out in the yard, walked back to the fire, sat down and then walked back out on the porch, staggered back to the bed and fell across it and was dead. He leaves a wife and 3 children, one daughter, grown, and 2 boys, aged 14 and 16, other relatives and a host of friends to mourn their loss. He was a hard working man, honest and a Christian, having confessed Christ just a short time ago.
