:Death of Mrs.John Cox= There was grief and regret among the relatives and friends of Mrs.Jennie Cox, when it was announced that her spirit had taken its flight to its maker on last Saturday, Nov.26,1904. She had been ill with pneumonia for about a week, and all the loving care and attention she received were of no avail and she died as she had lived, a thorough Christian, having been a member and followed the precepts of the Baptist church for over forty years. She was born in Tennessee in 1846, her maiden name being Jennie Whittenton. She was married in Arkansas to Mr.John Cox in 1871. Embraced the Baptist faith when she was fourteen years old, and now she leaves a heartbroken husband and seven children to mourn her loss. She was a member in good standing of the Knights and Ladies of Honor. The remains were laid to rest in the Forrest City cemetery Sunday, to await the great summons, Rev.J.A.McCord officiating. The Times extends sympathy to the bereaved family, Uncle John Cox has been our steadfast friend for many years.
