The Sabine Index - John B. Mahaffey

  10 Mar 1933 - We are sorry to note the death of Uncle John B.
Mahaffey.  He passed away last Thursday at the age of 91 years,
three months and one day.  Uncle John was loved by all who knew
him he had a kind word for all he met.  His wife preceded him to
the grave.  He is survived by five children, two boys, Poly
Mahaffey of Florien and Martin Mahaffey of Hemphill, Texas;
three daughters, Mrs. Florence Sanders of Fisher, Mrs. Emma
Wesbery of Esto, and Mrs. Lizzie Chance of Hornbeck, besides
38 grandchildren and 36 great grandchildren.  He was laid to
rest at Ebenezer church Friday.  Rev. Henry Chance conducted
the services.  Uncle John was active until a few months before
his death, could walk two or three miles to town and back in a
day.  We sympathize with the bereaved, but are sure he is at
rest in a better world.
