Natchitoches Times J.W. Jones Jas. W. Jones, Friday March 1,
1918 at 2:00 A.M., Aged 79 years.
Mr. Jones, who was a native of Georgia, was born in 1839 and in
1861 joined Co. C. of that state and served all during the Civil
War with honor, rising to the rank of Second Lieutenant. After
the war he married Miss Anna Dobbs and to this union six children
were born, three of whom survive.  They are Mrs. Albert Bri-lari
of Little Rock, E.W. Jones of Shreveport, and Jas. R. Jones of
Oakdale. The deceased settled in Grant Parish after the War,
moving to Nat-chitoches in 1877, where he since resided. His
funeral was held on Friday af-ternoon with internment in Ameri-
can Cemetary.  The religious cere-mony was held at the First
Baptist Church of which he has always been a consistant member.
Phoenix Lodge, No. 38, F. & A.M. conduc-ted the Masonic ceremony
at the grave. The deceased was a kind and de-voted husband and
father, a true friend of the sick and needy and af-ter a long,
honorable and useful life has gone to claim his reward, hearing
those consoling words, "Well done, thou good and faithful
servant". To his bereaved wife, who was ever his devoted
helpmeet, and child-ren, the "Times" extends great sym-pathy.

A little son of William Jones, colored, who lives about two miles
from town, burned to death on Friday last.  The old folks had
gone to a branch some distance from the house, leaving a fire in
the yard, and it is supposed that the little fellow was trying to
roast some corn, when his clothing took fire, burning him so
severely that he died the same night of his injuries. His little
brother, who was near, threw water on him, and extinguished the
flames, not until he was so badly burned as to result in death.
