Obituary, The Gurley Herald of Thurs. July 21 [6th?], 1904: “We were sad indeed to hear of the death of our old friend Bro. J. C. Hunkapilla, who died at his home near New Hope last Saturday. Weep not dear friends for it is only a summons from the Master to come up higher and receive the reward for his labor here. He was surely a man of God, one whom all who knew him honored and loved him. We extend our deepest sympathy with his aged wife and children.
