OLD CITIZEN PASSED AWAY.
Mr.. John A. sullivan Died Suddenly
and Almost without Warning.

! Mr.. John A. Sullivan died suddenly.
shortly after o'clock yesterday after
noon, at his residence, at Drayton and
Henry streets, where he had lived for
many years. The exact cause of death is
not known, but from it's manner Mr. Sui
livans physicians infer that he had a
chronic lesion of the heart.
He had been complaining for several
days of feeling Ill, but his condition was
not regarded by his family as at all seri-
GUS and he did not so regard it himself
Yesterday he remained in his room for
the greater part of the morning, and again
retired there after he ate his dinner. He
said he would lie down for few minutes
longer but had ordered his horse and
buggy and intended to go out upon the
streets and look after some business. His
son went up stairs to tell his father the
horse and buggy were ready for him, and
found him lying upon the bed, dead. Evil
IDENTIFY he had died very suddenly, and
only a few minutes before his body was
found.
Mr.. Sullivan was born in Limerick Ire
land, sixty-two years ago but came to
this country when quite young. For
long time he was in the service of the
Plant System, which he left to engage
IN the business of contractor and build
err on his own account. This he had fol-
lowed with success, and a number of hand
some homes of the city were designed
and built by him.
During the Civil War Mr.. Sullivan
served as a member of the Georgia Hus-
sars, with which he saw hot service in
the Virginia campaigns. Long after the
war he retained an active interest in the
command and only advancing years and
increasing infirmities prevented his taxi
ing part in every assembly of the historic
corps. He was an honorary member still
of the Hussars and member of the Con-
federate Veterans Association, of the Sa-
Vannah Benevolent Association, of Ter
rubbabel Lodge of Masons and of the Hi
bernian Society, by all of which organiza-
tions his funeral this afternoon will be
attended.
He leaves a wife and five children,
FMessrs. r.. B. and George Sullivan, Mrs.
-J. b. Thomas. Mrs. A. NJ. Leach of
Jacksonville, and Miss Pearl Sullivan.
The funeral services at the residence will
ebe conducted at O'Clock this afternoon
,by Rev. DR.. John d. Jordan, pastor OF
the First Baptist Church. The interment
will be in Laurel Grove Cemetery, where
the Masons will pay their dead brother
the tribute of their funeral rites. The
pail bearers will be selected from the
several organizations with which Mr..
Sullivan had been connected in life.

set aside this day, his birthday, as
legal holiday, that the people of the
South may pay tribute to his services and
his memory. On this account the court,

when the civil docket will be called for

this afternoon, when Judge Falligant's
charge will be delivered. Immediately
thereafter the grand jury will retire and
