John Higgins

Mr. John Higgins, an old reliable citizen of Jackson and Butts County, who has been suffering with cancer for several months past, expired on Thursday about 1 o'clock.   The best medical aid of the county was secured in his service, but to no avail.  For want of sufficient date we are unable at this writing to give even a brief sketch of his life.  He had just entered his 77th year two days previous to his death.  The funeral services will be conducted by Rev. W. G. McMichael from the Baptist Church, Friday at 2 o'clock.  His remains will be entered at the citizen's cemetery.  We extend to the bereaved family our deepest sympathies.
