OLD RESIDENT OF CAIRO DEAD
J. T. Jones Passed Away after a Long Illness
After an illness of two years, John T. Jones died Friday night at the family residence, 1701 Poplar Street. His condition became serious about three weeks ago and since that time he failed rapidly. He was in his 59th year, having been born in Springgreen, Wisconsin, August 17, 1853.
Mr. Jones was one of Cairo's respected citizens and was well known, having been in the employ of the Illinois Central for 22 years, being foreman of the shops both here and at Mounds. At the latter place he resigned his position about eight years ago and embarked in the general store business there. Several years ago he disposed of these interests there and returned to Cairo again to reside.
The members of his family are, besides his wife, two daughters, Misses Catherine and Helen, and four sons, Harry, William and Thomas, of this city, and John, of Birmingham, Alabama, and also a sister-in-law, Miss Margaret Chauncey, of this city. He also has other relatives in Wisconsin.
Deceased was a member of the Cairo Commandery Knights Templar. The funeral arrangements will be announced later.
