that we find in tue Carroll Conserva-

Barrow, one of the oldest and most
worthy citizens of Carroll county. 1t
has been our pleasure to have known
Mr. b. for the last twenty years, and a
more worthy or honest man did not
live. He hung himself in his own gin
house, 10y putting rope around his
neck and jumping OF cotton bale
He lost a great deal of property in the
late war, and since the surrender has
tried in various ways to recruit his
broken fortunes, but misfortune attend
ed him in his every effort, and it Is
thought he became partially deranged
from this, and thus ended his life. He
leaves a large family to mourn his loss,
and to one and all Of them we tender
our heartfelt sympathies.
