J.F. Click, 78, Former Editor of the Times-Mercury, Celebrated 78th Birthday Dec. 3, 1925

Veteran Paper Man of Hickory is 78 Years Old

Hickory, Dec. 3—J.F. Click, one of the oldest newspaper men in this section of the state, observed his 78th birthday anniversary Wednesday. He made no celebration plans and spent the day quietly with his family and friends.

In 1884 Mr. Click, who was born and reared in Davie County, moved to Catawba County, coming to Hickory in January 1891. Two months later he took over the editorship of The Times-Mercury and remained with that paper until about two years ago when he retired from public life.
