The following obituary is from the "Hawkinsville (Ga.) Dispatch," dated Sept. 7, 1876:
Daniel Meadows, another veteran of the War of 1812, has fallen. He was 96 years, 10 months, and 28 days. He lived in North Carolina 19 years, Taliaferro Co., Ga., 39 years and in Coweta Co., Ga. 39 years. He died in the latter county. He never had a doctor visit him in his life, never owned a time piece, nor bought a box of matches; never was sued nor left a debt unpaid, but always tried to help the preacher and the poor.
His grandson Simeon Joseph Meadows said that his grandfather Meadows died without sickness or pain. He retired at night, went to sleep and never awoke, though he continued to breathe, slower and weaker, for two days and nights.
