DEACON JOHN PRINCE MILLER HUGHART:  Our subject was born on a farm 
near Lewisport, Hancock County, Kentucky, on February 19, 1869, and 
was the son of John Wisdom and Amilda Miller Hughart.  He attended 
the grade schools of Hancock County and also attended school for some 
time serving in the First Cavalry of the United States Army, Troop H, 
at Fort Grant, Arizona.  He later attended the Eckels School of 
Embalming at St. Louis, Mo., and for over forty years was a funeral 
director at Livermore, Kentucky.
	He was converted at the age of seventeen and was baptized into 
the fellowship of the Chestnut Grove Baptist Church, near Lewisport, 
Kentucky, by Rev. W. H. Dawson.  He held membership with the 
Livermore Baptist Church for several years before his death and was 
ordained as a deacon of this Church in 1921.  He also served as a 
member of the Mission Board from this Church during the last twenty 
years of his life.
	We are uninformed as to the date of his marriage and the maiden 
name of his wife [Effie].  She, with their two sons, survived him.  
He died on May 6, 1940, and is buried in the Livermore Cemetery.  The 
firm of J. P. Hughart and Sons is still being carried on by one of 
his sons, Harold.  For many years he was the agent of the Standard 
Oil Company at Livermore and the son still carries on this business 
in connection with that of Funeral Director.
	J. P. Hughart was one of the most faithful members of the 
Livermore Baptist Church during his life time and was largely 
responsible for that Church maintaining her place of usefulness 
during the financial depression of the early 1930's.  He contributed 
liberally of his means to the support of the Lord's work at that 
place even to the point of genuine sacrifice.  Livermore Church and 
the Association lost a devoted member in the death of J. P. Hughart.
