his wife, who was out of the city and
hie daughter, Mrs. W. Y. Ycation,
opened the telegram. I^ater Mr.
Yeadon also received a telegram ac?
quainting him of the death erf his
father-in-law. The news came as a
great shock to members of his fam?
ily here. The messages received mer
ly stated that the deceased had kill?
ed himself. They came from Alathua,
Florida, a smalt town about seventy
five miles below Jacksonville.
Mr. Jones was for many years
connected in business in Sumter. He
left Sumter something, over a year
ago and went to Florida, where he
was in business until a few months -
ago, when he began, traveling for a
commission house at Columbia. The
news of his doath by hjs own hand
came as a profound shock and sur?
prise to many of the people of Sum?
ter who knew him.
Mr. Jones is survived by his wife,
one daughter, Mrs. Tates Yeadon,
two eons, Waiter H. Jones, Sumter,
and Bugcne B. Jones, Richmond, Va.

Mrs. S. C. Jonee, and one sister, Mrs.
a. H. Cunningham, liberty Hill; and
a brother, B. O. Jonen, Rock Hill.

tified and are expected here tonight.
Immedlatol: after the news of
the death of Mr. Jones had been re?
ceived here a telegram was dispatch?
ed requesting that the body be ship?

ease the funeral services will be
held from the station to the ceme?
tery Immediately upon the arrival of
the train.
