Obituary

J.P. Hackley, passed away at his home Saturday, 18 January 1919 of pneumonia. Funeral held in the Methodist church under the management of the Knights Templar and the Masons of which organizations he had long been an active and honored member. Dr. Allen, pastor of the Methodist church, of which Mr. Hackley was a member preached the funeral sermon. In the death of Mr. Hackley Jacksboro loses a citizen who will long be missed by all. He will be missed by the businessmen as he was always at the head of every worthy enterprise that was for the best interest and progress of the town. He will be missed in educational circles as he is at all times was one of the most active supporters of the public school, serving as trustee for many years. He was always a liberal contributor to church and works of benevolence. All of these obligations consumed much time for a man who had the extensive business relations that Mr. Hackley held, he being manager of the Jacksboro Mill and Elevator Company and the Jacksboro Light Plant, and a director of the First National Bank. The Jacksboro Mill and Elevator plant had been under the management of Mr. Hackley from the time it was built in 1898 to the time of his death, and had by him been developed into one of the finest mills of its capacity in Texas. He understood thoroughly his business and labored incessantly to make of it a success and in this he was amply rewarded. He was a man of most pleasant demeanor and won for himself personal friends of all with whom he had business transactions as well as those in social and educational circles. Mr. Hackley was born in Missouri, and came with his parents to Parker County in 1879. He was married to Miss Mary E. Kutch in Parker County. Mrs. Hackley and her sons and daughters who survive him have great sympathy of friends in Jacksboro and Jack County, but also Weatherford and Graham.
