Mr. J. F. Bennett died here Sunday morning after a lingering illness. He had an apopletic stroke some few months ago and had been a sufferer ever since though at times he sufficiently improved to be up in the house and occasionally go out for a ride. He bore his suffering with fortitude, never complaining. He has had several light attacks since the first. His last attack came nearly three weeks ago and from this he never rallied. He was born in Marlboro County June 1868. He died April 27, 1919. At the time he was taken sick he was traveling for G. Berned Co., of Macon, Ga. He was a consistent member of the Methodist church.

Bennett and three sisters, Mrs. J. S. Covington and Misses Maggie and Lou Bennett of Marlboro County. The burial services were conducted at the grave in Magnolia Cemetery, by his pastor, Rev.
