sided since the war we do no. choose 70
speak He is dead Let q memory Of

To the hundreds with whom 20 became
acquainted ia Cairo ani Southern hi
nois, he MAJ tested b self as rooo
hearted, uucalculating 'ort OF u geniu
unstimulated by ambition, AID taxing
things as they turned up" with the
composure ola perfect philosopher. He
was lawyer, a mechanic, q musician
and school teacher, but Ike all "Jacks
Of all trades excellcd in nothing. At one
time he was entrusted with the manage
ment Of more cases in the Pulaski circuit
court, than all the balance Of the attor-
neys practicing at that bar To this fact
perhaps, he might have ascribed his
failure in the practice Of the law, as it
imposed upon him more duties than be
could properly attend to. In the winter
OF 1890 he located in Cairo, where he
continued the practice Of law, and
bowed b soprano hern in the Cairo
brass band. He became q favorite with
the band boys, being OF a fine social
turn, ever ready for q Clark" and like
the balance, n most devoted lover OF
music.
We never thought Hunter q bad
hearted man, and the necessity had 10
be dire indeed that would drive him to
the com mission OF mean and belittling
act. What changes In his character his
Memphis experience may have worked,
we do not know. He was denounced
there as petty tyrant, yet when he ran
for one OF the most lucrative and respon.
sible Offices under The city government,
it was only by TIE most prodigious eff.
forts and lavkh expenditure Of money,
his opponents could encompass his de-
feat. But he IL gone. Good rest, and
