JOHN QUINCY SKIPPER, aged 54, died Satrday morning about 3:15, at the family home, 300 S. West street, after an illness of several weeks. Mr Skipper had been in declining health for some time, and all that physicians and loved ones could do was of no avail, and death came as a relief to his suffering.
Mr Skipper was born in Lanty, October 23, 1887, and was a lifelong resident of Conway county. With his first wife, who preceeded him in death fourteen years, he came to Morrilton where for many years he was connected with the Singer Sewing Machine Co. He was married in 1923 to Mrs Martha Bradshaw and to this union one child was born.
Mr Skipper was chairman, of the Republican Central Committee, and was the postmaster at Morrilton from 1921 to 1929. He was a faithful member of the First Baptist church, where his funeral services were conducted by his pastor, Rev E.L. Cole, Sunday afternoon, after which members of the Morrilton Masonic Lodge No. 105, of which he was a member had charge of the services at the McClaren cemetery at Lanty where interment was made.
Surviving him are his wife, seven daughters, five sons and two step sons, Misses Neoma and Winnie, Arthur, Quincy, Bradley, J.Q. Jr, W.M. and Glen of this city. Gordon, of Idabell, Okla, Mrs Don Bostain, Mrs Claud Evans and Mrs Olen Krissell of England; Mrs Marvin Koonce and Mrs Delma Atkinson of Granite City Ill. Three sisters, Mesdames Jim Turner and John Edwrds of Webber Falls Okla and Fate Treece of Jonesboro; two brothers, Jim and Carl Skipper of England. All the children were with him when the end came, except Mrs Atkinson, who was unable to be here on account of illness.
The following served as pall bearers: Alec Deaton, Will Beers, J.E. Brazil, Arthur Wells, Floyd Moses and T.C. Scroggin. Frank Reid, local undertaker had charge of funeral arrangements.
