The subject of the above notice Was
taken sick on the camp ground, while
attending camp meeting at that place,
on Tuesday, the 10Th. From the first
of the attack he was impressed with
the idea that it would prove fatal,
and expressed the most perfect resig-

future, saying the only care he had
was the welfare Of his family. Isl
He was born in Campbell county,
Ky, September the 18th, 1929 but
removed, with his parents, to Indiana,
when he was quite young, united
with the NJ. f. Church when 9 years
of age, and was licensed a. local
preacher In 1883 In 1863 he was
elected Auditor of Decatur county,
Ind, which Office he filed for eight
years.. with credit to himself and
the satisfaction Of his constituents. In
1871 he removed to this county and
settled ON farm in Highland town
ship, where he has since resided. lie
was all active member Of the church,
earnestly 1aboring to advance the
cause of Christianity, and although
a man Of strong convictions he was
proycrDially kind and gentle to al
with whom he was associated. He
was man of warm heart, keenly
alive to the suffcrings Of humanity.
and ever ready to extend helping
hand to the afflicted, one Of the few
men who had never been known u
speak an uhkind word TO his fellow
man. In all the relations Of life hi

The Colt Show.

The colt show, this afternoon, al
Gray & Bcdwell's livery barn, was
very successful in point of quality
though the attendance was smaller
than was expected. These colts were
all sired by "Honest Fred,' a very
fine brown horse, the property of J.
T. Gront Esq, of Agency City. This
horse is about as handsome as he can
be, well built, and said to be an ex-
cellent traveller. Mr.. Grout offered a
premium of IS for the best colt sired
by Honest Fred, and the red ribbon
was given to colt belonging to Jas.
Reeves. The judges had some diff

one was the best. Jonathan Boyce

color, which was as trim-limbed as a
deer, and pretty as a picture. Frank
Mcmillan brought in a beautiful
brown colt, that is almost the exact
counterpart of his sire. John Macl
