Mrs. J. J. Hanes Falls Into Final Sleep, Sunday
Beloved Lady Claimed by Death Following Illness of Only Two Weeks - Was in 89th Year
Following an illness of two weeks, Mrs. J. J. Hanes died at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Allen Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Death was due to the infirmities of old age, the deceased having enjoyed good health until a few days ago. While not unexpected, the passing of this excellent character came as a shock to the family.
Mrs. Hanes was in her 89th year. She was a native of Clayton county, being a daughter of the late Capt. Thomas Johnson, of Jonesboro. For the past twenty-two years she had made her home in Jackson with her daughter, Mrs. Allen. She was a member of the Presbyterian church, having joined in her girlhood. Mrs. Hanes was unusually industrious and numbered her friends by her acquaintances. Her husband, the late Mr. J. J. Hanes, preceded her to the grave several years. Mrs. Hanes is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Fred M. Allen of Jackson, Mrs. R. J. Ford, of Sylvester; one brother, Mr. H. W. Johnson, of near Jonesboro; several grandchildren and other relatives.
The funeral was held Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock from the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Allen, on East Third street. The service was conducted by Rev. W. R. Foote, pastor of the Jackson Methodist church. Mr. Foote spoke feelingly of the many noble traits of Mrs. Hanes, of her thoughtfulness and of her usefulness, her constancy and fidelity, the development of which grew more beautiful in the sunset of life. The eighty nine years were well spent and the memory of her exemplary will prove a benediction to her loved ones. Three selections were rendered by the choir composed of Mrs. R. P. Sasnett, Mrs. J. L. Lyons, Mrs. J. W. Crum, Mrs. S. H. Thornton, Miss Annie Reid Harper, Mr. R. P Sasnett, Mr. A. F. Whitney.
Mrs. Hanes found almost companionship in her love and care of flowers and it is but fitting that her last resting place should be covered with the fragrant blossoms, tokens from relatives and friends. The pallbearers were Messrs. J R. Lyons, J. M. Currie, C. M. Compton, J. T. Fletcher, C. T. Beauchamp and J. C. Kinard. Interment was in the city cemetery. In their sorrow the family have the sympathy of many friends. Among the relatives attending the funeral were: Mrs. R. J. Ford, of Sylvester, Mrs. G. S. Hanes, Mrs. Ernest Rogers, Mrs. S. L. Thomas and Ernest Hanes, of Atlanta, Mr. Ralph Johnson, of Birmingham.
