Deceased was born at Old Jefferson, Rutherford county, Tennessee, on October 25, 1866, and had been a resident of Waco for 38 years. In this city he was well known. In musical circles of days gone by he was especially prominent. It was said of John Stewart that music formed a part of his make-up, and this, in a measure, was true, for he never seemed quite so happy or contented as when playing his beloved snare drum, he being considered one of the best in the state when in his prime. He was also a pianist of great ability and a vocalist of note. John Stewart was a man of kindly impulses, who could be depended on to aid and assist a friend whenever his circumstances permitted, and his generosity was often invoked by those on whom the hand of affliction had been laid. His sympathies were ever with the oppressed and downtrodden, and his voice was always raised in behalf of the unfortunate. Besides a widow and one brother, A. J. Stewart of this city, he is survived by three sisters, Miss Lillie Stewart, Waco; Mrs. J.U. Clabaugh, Ross; Mrs. John Amonett, Pauls Valley, Oklahoma.
