J. P. Hartness Passes After 39 Years Residence at Davis

J. P. Hartness, 79, resident of this vicinity for 39 years, passed peacefully into eternal sleep at his home in this city at 7:05 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29, 1949.

He had been in failing health about a month due to dropsy, but few of his friends knew of his illness and his death came as a shock. The immediate cause of his death was a heart attack.

Services were held at the Presbyterian church Tuesday at 2 p.m. A fine tribute to his life and character was paid by his former pastor, Rev. S. D. Crouch of Norman, who conducted the service. Assisting were Dr. A. E. Wardner of Oklahoma City and Rev. J. A. Phipps of Norman, pastor and former pastor respectively. A small choir provided the music for the occasion.

Pall bearers were C. N. Dickson, J. C. Kelly, J. R. Crippen, C. H. Willis, Jack Garrison and A. L. Pitchford. Bahner Funeral Home had charge of arrangements. Interment was in Green Hill cemetery.

James Pleasant Hartness was born in Hill county, Texas, Sept. 30, 1870. He was united in marriage to Miss Clara Patterson Dec. 16, 1896 at Weatherford, Texas, and to this union two daughters and three sons were born. He was preceded in death by his wife in 1924 and a daughter in 1907.

In 1934 he was married to Mrs. Sallie Ward in this city. He is survived by his wife, one daughter, Mrs. Bland (Ola) Wilson, Houston, Mo.; three sons, Rev. R. W. Hartness, Auburn, Ill.; Edwin Hartness, Pauls Valley, Okla., and Ellis Hartness, Tulsa, Okla.; a step-daughter, Mrs. J. E.

Hartness, Dallas, Texas; and seven grandchildren.
