Funeral services for J. Oscar Cole, 70, widely known Butts county resident who died early Saturday at his home on north Mulberry street, were held at the Jackson Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Rev. W. S.

White, T. A. Rape, of Covington, and Bob T. Williamson, of Atlanta.
Born here of parents who took a leading part in the County's progress, he was a son of the late John Henry Cole and his wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Greer Cole. His father served as treasurer of Butts county for several years. Mr. Cole was a member of Pleasant Grove Methodist church and of St. Johns lodge of Masons. He served as a member of the board of tax equalizers for several years.
In declining health for several years, Mr. Cole had been seriously sick for several weeks but his condition was thought to be improved and death came unexpectedly.
