Daath of an Old citizan.

Mr.. Alexander NJ. Carter, one OF
the best known and certainly one
of the most highly esteemed citI-
zens of Pulaski, died Monday last
of pneumonia. The attack was a
most violent one and medical skill
availed nothing against the fatal
complications of the disease. His
death was not only a great shock
to his family and friends, but it
had a painful effect on the commu
nifty generally. Mr.. Carter was a
man of warm and benevolent i'm
pulses; liberal and charitable in his
views; kind and sympathetic, pub
lie spirited and generous to a fault.
Men of his stamp live in the hearts
of their fellow citizens. At the
time of his death he was fifty five
years of age. He was buried Tues
day by the Knights of Honor,
and large number of people, in
Guiding the most prominent citi
zens of Pulaski, followed his re-
mains to the grave.

1t has been so long since our
burg was represented in the col.
umns of the CITIZEN that I have
concluded (as Aunt Mollie has laid
her pen aside) to break the pain
ful silence. Though we do not in
tend to compete for the prize. yet
we must let Jeems and / and Lynn
know that they have not got all the
news. We have had one death re-
Gently, that of Mr.. Vance, wife of
Mr.. Jack Vance, OF district No. /.
The deceased fell q victim of that
fatal disease, consumption, after a
lingering illness. She leaves hus-
band and several children to mourn
her loss Mr.. Orville Austin, a re
spectacle young man, was seriously
wounded in q fight Monday within
three miles of this place, receiving
nine wounds from a knife in the
hands of Mr.. j. w. Weaver, a we'll
known citizen of this place. 1t
seems that the parties fell out
about some property, and Austin, be
coming enraged, seized a piece of
rail and struck Weaver a severe
blow on the arm. The latter then
used his knife, as stated. Drs.
Glaze and Williams, the attending
physicians, say the wounded man is
In a critical condition.
Last Sabbath night, after a beau

Virgie Westmorelsnd; Mr.. Raybo
Daily with Miss Sue Bull, and Mr..
John Baugh with Miss Lizzie
Beatty. Mr.. Daily, the groom, is a
rising young business man, of good
morals, and is a great favorlte in so
cial circles. Ofhis lovely bride, we
can only say she occupies a warm
place in the hearts of her friends,
all OF whom unite in wishing her
unbounded happiness.
DR.. Matt Beatty and Mr.. Thomas
Goats, with their families, passed
through here last week en- route to
Texas. We hate to give up our
time honored old citizens, but il
they tOiH go. may prosperity attend
them. The holidays were quite en-
ioyable. The principal entertainment
was a Christmas tree for the chill
dren, beautifully adorned by the ar
tistic hands of Misses Ophelia and
Alice Scruggs, at the residence of
their mother, Mrs. Hannibal
Scruggs. The little ones were
much delighted at the msneuvers of
old Santa Claus.
