JOHN J MARTIN DEAD.
Adam’s Run. Sept. 19 —The rela
tives and friends of Mr. John J- Mar
tin were grieved to learn of hw
Meath, which occurred at his old an
cestral home at 4 a. m. Sunday. Sep-
tember the 12th.
HehadLeenin feeble health fori
I
several months, jaundice and other
complications hastened the end.
The funeral services were conduct
ed by his pastor, the Rev. John Dal
ton. assisted by Rev. John Tuten. a
venerable minister who had known
ttye deceased from eh^dhood. He
sleeps ,^at the old Stono Baptist
Church beside several beloved chil
dren who proceeded him to the spirit
land.
‘‘Uncle John,” as he was familiar
ly •called, was greatly beloved, as
was evidenced by the large concourse
of people who attended his funeral.
He served for years as trustee of the
public schools and had the interest
of the patrons always at heart. He
never made a prayer in public, but
he w’as a true and devoted friend to
the widow and orphan. His was a
generous nature, gbove the pretty
spiteu of the average, and many will
miss him in more ways than one.
We delighted in gathering his rel
atives and friends around his hearth,
so it was the exception and not the
rule, to find only the members of his
immediate family there.
He was 56 years old the 2nd day of
last April. He leaves a wife and
sevenchildren also an adopted daugh*
ter to mourn his loss. Mr. Martin
is also survived by five brothers and
one sister and many nieces and
nephews.
Do not grieve dear ones, he has
only proceeded you and is safe with
Jesus, whom he leaned so trustingly
upon as the end drew near.
He was a devoted father, a kind
neighbor, and a true friend-some of
his friendships being unbroken from
boyhood, so his place can never be
filled: but we bow in submission to
His will and pray for strength to
bear this sorrow with Christian grace
and fortitude.
May the God of the fatherless and
widow comfort the bereaved ones.
Mrs. George Barnett, Mrs. Morse,
Mrs. Campbell. Mrs. Ed.^Mstftin,
Miss Pellie Martin, and Mr. Ed.
Chinnis came up from Charleston to
attend the funeral of Mr. Martin.
