Last Saturday and Sunday Rev. Dr. J. E.
Evans held quarterly meeting services at
Craneaville. His sermons were strong Cos
pei discourses and were appreciatiyely re-
ceieved by large audiences. Friday night
previous he delivered powerful temper
ance address, and thus contributed to streng-
then the good work in that section. The
rain Sunday night broke up the meeting.
Rev. VIM. McFerrin was present and ad-
ded to the interest of the eccasion. This
venerable and excellent minister preached
in that neighborhood as presiding elder
some thirty-four years ago and this revisit
recalled many pleasant scenes. We are in
debted to S. II. Duncan, Jno. NJ. Mitchell
and Dr. Thompson for kind attentions J.
B. Crisp has charge OF the GAINESVILLE
school and is very popular with the people
We must notice the strong hold the temper
ance cause has upon this community. 1t is
an omen of good for the future. The rising
generation under such influence viii show
forth higher and better manhood. Push
on the work and save the young, if you can't
the old. In force and elevation of charac-
ter the next generation of citizens through
out the county sho uld be an improvement
upon the present.

IN MEMORIAM.

After lingering and painful illness at
Salisbury, Tenn, May 28th, Mrs. Mary
Rose Williams sweetly fell asleep in Jesus
She was born in Marion, Ala, Nov. 9th,
1922, at a very early age her father moved
from her native state to Ark, remaining
there only one year. Then he removed to
Tenn. The subject of this notice was united
in marriage to Mr.. J. c. Williams, Sept
Z4th, 1910. A family of eight children
arose around them-fve daughters now sur
vive her to mourn the loss of an afectionate
and devoted mother. Mrs. W. soon after
her marriage, united with the Presbyterian
church at Old Berlin, and lived a faithful
consistent member. She was a woman of
rare excellence of character. "NOne knew
her but to love her; none named her but to
praise" In all the relations of life she ex-
hibited three traits of character that always
attract profound admiration. She was a
kind peighbor, an affectionate wife and a
devoted mother. A few months before her
death she left her home to go to one of her
daughters, that she might sssist in the care
of the children, while that daughter was en-
gagged in the duties of he school room, but
was taken dangerously i'll on the way and
lay for four weeks at Grand Junction quite
sick. As soon as she had regained sufficient
strength to travel she returned home, but
only to die. She fingered for few weeks
and then passed away, sweetly trusting in
the Savior she had served SO long. Her
sufferings were great during all her sickness
but she bore it all without murmuring or
complaint, and became wonderful illus
tration of the power of the gospel, in patti
ence and gentleness and trust in Christ. She
often expressed herself as ready to die and
no doubt death to her was great relief, for
to every child of God, we are assured, "the
day of ones death is better than their
birth" Death releases them from ali the
evils of this life and leads to God-to God
our exceeding joy forever. May
this great affection be abundantly sanetified
to all the children and sorrowing friends,
and may they be lead to follow her as she
followed Christ. She cannot return to
earth but you can go to her.
Afar in yODder sky
| She finds her home;
And waits in realms of light
For thee to come.
! Call her not back to earth
| To leave her crown.
She has fought through sin and DEATH

June LIST, 1879.
Mr.. Editor For once in my life / will
give way to my cacoethes scribendi and write
you about Pocahontas. Since the storm
everybody has settled down to their usual
routine of business most of the houses dam
aged have been repaired. The farming
prospects are very hatering, except the APP
pearance in some localities, and our fruit
crop will be very good. Some one has sus-
gested that the ladies and gentlemen here
give concert for the benefit of the churches
and we hope they will take the matter in
hand Immediately. The croquet fever has
broken out here, and l want to ask your
sympathy. They have pitched the ground
near by where we are blowing, and a few
DAYS since a crowd of ladies and gentlemen
assembled to play game. At first it ere
ated no emotions within our breast, but as
the game progressed, and the silvery laugh
ter of the fair players was waited to our
ears on the balmy breeze, our spirits fell a
dreaming, and we looked back from the
rugged cliffs of present reality, down the
dim vistas of time to the floral bygone,
when we, too, played the fascinating game.
But we were suddenly brought back to the
realities of this world by an ear splitting
yell from our mule, and turning from the
contemplation of this bright picture, we saw
him flying across the field, the pillow per-
forming series of gymnastic evolutions in
the air, and as he went over the brow of
hill, we mentally calculated "God speed the
plow" We gathered the pieces together
and went to work sadder, if not wi,,er
man.

The People Want PROOF.

There is ne medicine prescribed by physi-
cions, or sold by druggist, that carries such
evidence of its success and superior virtue
as Boschee's German Syrup for severe
coughs, colds settled on the breast, cOnsump-
ton, or any disease of the throat and lungs
A proof of that fact is that any person af-
ficted, can get a sample bottle Tor 10 cents
anu try its superior effect before buying the
regular size at Is cents. 1t has lately been
introduced in this country from Germany
and its wonderful cures are astonishing ev-
