Major Kellogg Dead
Early this morning the dead body of Major Uriah Kellog was found lying in the road just beyond the residence of Mr. Meade Hendrick. It is well known that Mr. Kellogg had long been a citizen of this county, having located in Jackson when he was a young man. He came here from Hartford, Conn.
He married a sister to Messrs. Alex and Matt Wilkinson. His wife died several years ago and his children � several boys, are scattered abroad. Several years ago he returned to his native state and remained till about five months ago when he again appeared on our streets. Since that time he has been wondering around in a dejected and pitiable condition, hardly able to go from the effects of rheumatism. He had no regular home, but stayed wherever he could find shelter, indulging in drink whenever he could get it. He had been drinking on yesterday afternoon from the effects of which he fell by the roadside and died from exposure.
Coroner T. F. Clark held an inquest over the remains this morning and the jury returned a verdict in accordance with the above. He will be buried today in the city cemetery. He lacked two days of being 57 years of age.

An Old Land Mark Gone
On the 29th day of November, the soul of Mr. B. C. Kinard took its flight and ascended to the God who gave it. Mr. Kinard was in his seventy-fourth year and had been a resident of this county for forty years. His was the first death that ever occurred in the family. His wife and eleven children and six grandchildren, the offspring all being alive and in good health. Mr. Kinard was one of those quiet unassuming ____ ____ and ability was a blessing and whose true worth to this country through the dark hours of reconstruction will never be realized until the great day of final accounts when those who prayed in secret will be rewarded openly. The funeral service was conducted by his neighbor and life friend, Rev. T. J. Kimbell and the internment was at the grounds of Fellowship church. The sons and daughters of Mr. Kinard are found to be connected with the best families in the land and they reflect credit on, and show the care bestowed upon them by the deceased. The sorrowing wife and children have our sympathy in their sad bereavement, but we point them to the upright life their loved one lived, knowing that God loves an honest man.

A Sad Death
Our readers will be pained to learn of the death of Mr. F. M. Kinard at his store on Wednesday morning. The coroner, Simon Hardy, was summoned and the jury returned the following verdict: "We, the jury, after hearing the evidence under oath, find that Mr. F. M. Kinard the deceased, came to his death from a pistol shot from his own hand. T. F. Bell, foreman; J. G. Colwell, L. B. Carmichael, J. B. Evans, J. M. C. Thaxton, W. A. Mangham." There was no evidence as to whether the killing was suicidal or accidental. Mr. Kinard was in easy circumstances and had never hinted his intention if it was suicide. But he had just removed the pistol or was in the act of removing it from under his pillow where it was kept every night, when it fired. Whether he did it on purpose or it was an accident will never be known. (The Jackson Argus November 22, 1894)

The special from this place to this Constitution is very wrong. That he could have been in financial trouble for the estate of his father had just been sold for more than three times the indebtedness, besides a 400 acre dower not in the sale. (Middle Ga. Argus - Week of November 15, 1894)
