Mr J G Lowe, one of the most highly respected farmers and citizens of this county, died at his home near Jumping Branch about six o'clock Sunday afternoon. Mr Lowe had suffered from bowel trouble for three years, but had been, in a measure, able to attend to his regular vocations. On last Saturday he was taken violently sick and Drs Peck and Hume, of this place, were called to see him. They found him suffering from either stricture of the bowels or locked bowels. Mr Lowe being about sixty-five years of age and it great pain, it was thought useless to attempt an operation. For many hours prior to his death he was unconscious.
The deceased was born near Talcott in what is now this county (then Monroe county, Va.) He served in the Confederate Army during the Civil War and was a member of Lowry's Battery. He had resided in this county ever since the war with the exception of a short residence in Mercer county. He leaves surviving him his wife, who was a Miss Vines, and the following children, all of whom are grown and reside in this county: Messrs C E and O C Lowe, of Hinton; G W Lowe of Jumping Branch; and Madams Emma Meadows and May Hedrick, and Misses Annie and Clyde Lowe. Mrs J M Parker and Mrs G W Upton, both deceased, were daughter of Mr Lowe.
The remains were interred in the family burial grounds near Jumping Branch, Monday, after burial services by Rev G F Meador, of the Baptist church, of which Mr Lowe had been for years a member. He was an excellent citizen, a kind husband and father and his death is a matter of public regret.
