From a letter written by Virginia Scott Hodges to her cousin  Ann Young Brooke

Seguin, Texas Jan 21, 1939
"Saturday night cousin Jack Jefferson had a spell with his heart. Monday morning they found him dead. He died in his sleep. He was buried from St. Andrews Episcopal Church Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The Church was packed, and there were a great many beautiful flowers. His wife and son survive. His daughter died five or six years ago. He was still a very gallant old gentleman. He was 70 the first day of last October. Don't you remember they use to call him Handsome Jack when he was a real young man."
