Date listed: Tuesday, May 17, 1895

Died, May 14, 1805, at his residence in Venedocia, Mr. James W. Evans, son of Mr. and Mrs. William F. Evans, of Oak Hill, Jackson county. His sickness was pneumonia, He was married December 20, 1894, to Miss Smith, of Jackson the union lasting less than five months. Last summer Mr. Evans bought the interest of W. B. Williams in the blacksmith shop at this place, and the prospects for a prosperous business was before him. It is often asked, why Divine Providence should remove from the midst of a community a young man in the prime of life, in the hight (sic) of his usefulness, and his fondest hopes for a happy life and a prosperous business was about being realized. I can only quote the reason as given by a noted prelate: "That a flower that blooms in the morning and withers at night has performed its mission just the same as the sturdy oak that has braved the storms of a hundred long years." The deceased was a member of the M. E. church at this place. Faithful and amiable, he was highly respected by all who knew him. Tuesday services were held at his late residence, by Rev. Edwards. After the service the remains were taken to the depot to be borne to Oak Hill, Jackson county, for interment. Those accompaning (sic) the remains were, Mrs. Evans, his wife; Mr. W. E. Evans, his father; Mr. B. Smith, the deceased's father-in-law; M. Thomas and N. Evans. The deceased leaves a wife, father and mother, two brothers and two sisters, to mourn their loss. (Venedocia)
