[Editor's Comment; Mrs. Sara Wilson is a sister to Bane Janes of Franklin Springs. He came a number of years into the world after Sara discovered America by birth. Once again, I am grateful to Stanley Oliver of Royston, GA, for alerting me to the death of this dear wonderful Christian educator and a witness for Jesus Christ.]
