    • John Evans, Active In State Politics, Dies At Age Of 90
      Frankfort, Ky., Aug. 21, (AP) – John G. Evans, 90, long active in Democratic state politics, died yesterday of a heart attack while en route from Eminence to a Shelbyville hospital.
      A native of Carter county, he came to Frankfort in 1904, leaving the mercantile trade at Morehead to accept several appointive posts in Democratic administrations here. He was a strong supporter of the late U.S. senator and governor, J.C.W. Beckham.
      He had been in failing health for the past two years and had left Frankfort to live quietly in Eminence.
      Survivors include three daughters, Mrs. Harry L. Jeffers and Mrs. W.J. Hulette, both of Frankfort, and Mrs. Lester O. Marshall, Cincinnati; two sons, John Clifford Evans, a post office employe here, and Herndon J. Evans, editor of the Pineville Sun and publicity chairman for Gov. Earle Clements' successful campaign for Democratic nomination to the U.S. senate; four brothers, Emery Evans, Olive Hill; Gran Evans, Clemson, S.C.; Sherman Evans, Winter Haven, Fla., and Nelson Evans, Tollesboro; and a sister, Mrs. Connie Logan, Ashland.
      Funeral services will be held here at 2 p.m. central daylight time, tomorrow at the Rogers Funeral home with burial in the Frankfort cemetery.
      Messenger-Inquirer, Owensboro, Kentucky. Monday, 21 August 1950.
