Davidson, Dec. 9 - A large circle of friends and relatives hear with deep 
sorrow but with no suprise that Mr. J.M. Potts, who has been in the sanatorium 
at Statesville for the past two weeks, sick with appendicitis and peritonitis, 
died this morning about 9 o'clock. His illness has been of such a nautre that 
from the beginning little hope was entertained for his recovery.

In his death the town and community loses one of its most substantial and well-
to-do citizens.

Mr. Potts was the son of the late Captain J.M. Potts, a brother of the late 
Sheriff Lawson Potts. He is survived by his wife, who was Miss Alice Davis, 
formerly of Yadkin County, and two little children, a son and daughter, about 
8 and 6 years old respectively.

Mr. Potts is also survived by his mother, Mrs. Rozzelle of Charlotte, and the 
following brothers and sisters: Mr. W.A. Potts of Davidson; Messrs. Charles, 
Marvin and Jake Rozzelle of Charlotte; Mrs. Wat Wilson of Caldwell and Mrs. 
Knebel, now of Chicago.

Mr. Potts was a large land owner having in Mecklenburg and Iredell some 600 
acres. He also conducted a good livery business.
