A Pioneer Minister.
DR. P. A. JESSUP.
Dr. Jessup was one of the most prominent Baptist ministers in the State. He was a Confederate veteran, having enlisted at the age of sixteen at the last call of the Confederacy. He came to Eastman in its infancy as a teacher in the old Eastman Academy, in 1879. He spent many years teaching, many of the older citizens of this place having received their education under his tutorage.
For many years he was at the head of New Ebenezer College at Cochran. This college gave way a few years ago to the Twelfth District Agricultural College. Perhaps no other man of this entire section did as much for education as did Dr. Jessup. He helped many poor girls and boys through college and started them on their right way in life. He was a Christian of the highest type and a "Gentleman of the Old School," and it was often said of him that he was always on the right side of any vital question. He was also a trustee of Mercer University for twenty-two years, and was con- nected with many more institutions of learning, and was pastor of many churches throughout the State.
Though eighty years of age, Dr. Jessup was active up to the day he was stricken with his last illness. He had served on the grand jury during Superior Court just a few weeks before he was stricken, and was as active as any of the younger men. He was elected chap- lain of that body, and it was said that his farewell talk and prayer just before adjournment were gems of eloquence.
Dr. Jessup was the father of W. L. Jessup, of Eastman; Mrs. W. L. Roebuck, of Cordele; Broadus Jessup, of Jacksonville, Fla .; Mrs. William Backus, of Atlanta; Horace A., of Dothan, Ala .; Milton Jessup, of Eastman.
