One of Butts County's Oldest And Best Citizens Gone

Mr. J. J. Barnes, one of Butts county's best citizens, passed away Monday at his home in Stark. Mr. Barnes had been a member of Macedonia Baptist church for fifty years, and for many years a deacon. He was a useful man in his community, and in the seventy-two years of his life had done much good and made many warm and true friends. He will be greatly missed. The funeral services were conducted Tuesday by Rev. Parry Lee, of Macon, who had for several years been his pastor. Mr. Barnes leaves a wife and twelve children and over fifty grandchildren. This is the first death in the family. The death of a righteous man is a great loss to a community.
