Sister Stuart was born in Sullivan coun-
ty, Tennessee. on the 9th of May, 1914,
emigrated to franklin county Arkansas, in
1S51-became a member of the Methodist
Church south in 1855, of which she was a
consistent and faithful member at the time
of her death. But. alas, she has NOW pas
sed the home of the living No m ore will
her joyous laugh and happy presence glad
den the hearts of her many friends. The
gem of the social circle is removed from the
scenes of earth, and oft will the tears of
love bedew her youthful grave.
No words Of mere sympathy can give
consolation to the hearts of her afflicted pa
rents, yet we beg to offer this tribute to her
virtuous worth, and to say to them mourn
not Tor the loss of your beloved daughter
she is beyond the troubles of earth-in the
realms of eternal bliss, and though earth s
number is diminished, one more is added
to the number of sanctiiied in iIeaven. But
in the far off morn when the dead shall
come forth, your child VIII live again and
meet you in the joys of an eternal day
The veil of the future is woven by the hand
Of mercy, and no cloud OF life is so dark
that the light of hope does not fringe it.
Then sorrow not, your loss is her eternal
"ain-and after a few more tempcstuous
storms have been encountered, there will be
Il grand convocation beyond the narrow
confines of earth, where the faithful shall
meet, and their jubilant voices will min
gle with seraphic music until the dome of
Heaven will resound with the praises of the
God of the universe. 5. e.

T.espassisg-Henry Burruss, a free negro,
made his appearance before the Mayor yester.
day, to answer the charge Of treapAssinG ON the
premises of Rev. H. W. Watkins. When ar.
rested, he claimed to hr u free man, and stated
that his mother was a negress; but ON getting
into Court, he desired to change his status and
asked to occupy the position OF person Of
mixed blood. As he had not obtained the ne.
cessary certificate from the County Court Of
Hanover to relieve him fro,a the penalties and
disabilities TO- which fsee negroes are subjected,
he was ordered to Be fiogged. The Mayor gave
as reason tor his decieion, that the prisoner
mad claimed to be q negro-that he said his
mother was negro-that he associated with
negroes only-and that he was found in Mr..
