neriod in life. There are many abroad
who will remember him In his professional
connection with The Iron Mountain Railroad,
Within u year or two he entered the field OF
journalsm becoming moro recently attached
to the staff of the DEMOCRAT, OF which he was
an active efficient aud valued member-one

dents we know but little. He was lawyer,
an OK. Confederate soldier, and man of high
standing in Momphis whore he resided. At
the outbreak Of tho fearful pestilence yet pre-
vaing LII Grenada, he volunteered to go
there TO render NIL the assistance In his power
to the suffering people of that plague
stricken town. With a courage chat knew
no fear and large compassion which felt no
WEAKNESS in doing good and found its highest
qualification in alternating tho misery and
cheering the fainting spirits of his fellow

he was himself stricken down by the dread
disease. There Is not on record finer Illus
tration OF human fortitudo and self-sncriiice
than is afforded IN the example OF Major An
delson, and In his death VIC are touohingly
reminded that
Tho hrnvest are the tenderest-~
E The lowing are tho daring.
Peace to his ashosl The hands Of his sor-
rowing friends can erect to his memory no
monument SO grand as that he has made for
himself by his own undergraduates and de-
Yotion to suffering humanity.
