Obituary for Johnnie McMahan (dates unknown)
Uncited clippings from the "Mattie Davis Martin Collection" of Doris Martin
Jablonski, 1998.
Little Johnnie, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. S L. McMAHAN, was taken from our midst to a better world on Jan. 15. at four oclock. He had brightened the home of his parents for only five years, four months and three days, when God, in his almighty wisdom, saw fit to take him to himself to be an added jewel in his crown, and leave his family and friends sorrowing. Little Johnnie was sick only one short day and everything was done by parents and neighbors, but God saw fit to take his lovable soul to be one of the cherubs of his kingdom. Funeral services were conducted at the home the following day by the Rev. KENAHAUS, of Steinhagen, after which the remains were followed by a large cortege of friends and neighbors to its last resting place in the Martin grave yard.
