JONES, S.P. - S.P. Jones, familiarly known as Uncle Sam, died Sunday night at his home near Sonora of consumption. Although he had been ill for some time the end came sudden and peacefully. The remains were interred in the cemetery at Sonora Tuesday under the auspices of the I.O.O.F. lodge of Goshen. Deceased was about seventy years of age and some thirty-six years ago came to Washington County from Virginia, locating near Goshen. He had been living near Sonora for the past fourteen years. Mr. Jones had been married twice, there being four children as a result of his first union and six by his last, all surviving except one of the latter. Deceased was a member of the Baptist church and was a good citizen who had the respect of all.
