Robert Tompkins died at his res
idenee in this city, Dec. 26, 1851
aged 70 years.
He was born in Virginia in 1908.
He has left behind him many warm
friends who deeplysympathize with
his afflicted family. During his
quiet life his faith and works We're
alike peculiar. Like Nathaniel, he
was slow to believe, aud like him
an earnest searcher after the truth,
thoroughly in earnest and sincere,
and his faith once established
amounted 10 conviction which no
power could move. His faith in
the mercy Of God, was his strong
and last hope. He had triei him
self in the battle OF life and know
ing his own weakness gave himself
up hopefully confding in Gods mer-
cy to the last moment. His work
was done in keeping with the in
junction, not to let the one hand
know what the other did. He dis
pensed blessings more than most
men, and so quietly that none knew
save himself and the recipients.
His last wish was that he might
fall asleep and wake in heaven, To
all human appearance, his wish
was realized. He fell into quiet
slumber from which he never awoke
in this world. His life was gentle
and quiet; his departure as noise
less as the coming twilight. If he
had any serious faults we never
knew them, and they are buried
with him. Y.

Capt. !. J. Crusman's Assignment

Capt. J. J. Crusnan's Assignment.
The unexpected assignment of
Capt. j. J. Crusman, the Oldest and
most prominent wholesale and re-
tail grocer of our city, on last Tues
day morning was the occasion of
great surprise AMI universal regret
on the part of the whole communi-
ty. His grocery business was
known to be extensive and prosper
Gus, and his sudden failure was
well calculated to elicit surprise
and incredulity among those who
first heard the report, and right
here it is but in justice to Capt. Crus-
man and the business interests of
GAINESVILLE to state that his assign
ment was not the consequence of an
improbable grocery business, but of
unfortunate Investments in cotton
and grain futures. He closed his
doors on Tuesday morning and
made a full assignment of every
dollars worth of property he owned
in the world to Mr.. r. d. Moseley
trustee, for the benefit of his credit
ors. 1t is reliably stated that his
liabilities will not exceed $50, 900
and his assets are estimated at
about $4,000. It will thus be seen
that his failure is not very dam
aging one and even if his business
is wound up now by the trustee
it would probably pay seventy-fve
cents on the dollar. The largest
portion of his creditors are residents
of this city and it is gratifying to
learn that they are all disposed to
deal with him on the fairest terms
and give him all extensions neces-
sary.
To speak of Capt. Crusman's rec
ord and ability as merchant and
business man to this community
would, indeed, be word of super
errogation. To every citizen and
the business circles tributary to
GAINESVILLE he is well known, and
not a single person could be found
10 doubt either his splendid bust
ness capacity or his upright and
honorable character as a citizen and !
gentleman.
1t may not be out of place to state
here that his reputation and credit
is so well established among East
ern merchants that since his assign
ment he has received offers of I'M
limited credit for goods.
a meeting of his creditors Was
held on last Thursday evening at |
which resolutions of the highest |
confidence and trust IN him were |
passed, and it may be safely asser-
ted that his affairs will be speadily |
adjusted and his business resumed |
in a few days. This is the unani-
nous wish of every one who knows
or had any business connections
with Capt. Crusman, among whom
the CHRONICLE wishes to be |
numbered.

Masonic Banquet.

The Masons of this city celebrated
the 9th of December by giving a
banquet in their hall on the eve of
that day. ItWas exclusively a Ma
sonic banquet, given by the lodge
of this city to masons and their fam
lilies, members of the order from the
surrounding country being also in
vited. At O'Clock about 40 per-
sons had assembled and all were
made welcome by the committee
of reception. The exercises of the
even ing were very interesting, con-
sisting of appropriate music, speech
es and Rotations. The speeches
were made by Rev. A. d. Sears
and Rev. J. ID. Barbee. The music
was rendered by Mrs. Frank Wood,
Misses Nora Baker and Mary Bal
ley and Mr.. Samuel Lyman. Robt.
Morris poem, 1.-THE Level and the
Square," was recited by Miss Daisy
Kleeman in such a manner as to
elicit the applause of all present.
The supper was all that one could
desire. The turkeys were cooked
under the direction of Mr.. Ligon at
his bakery. The oyster soup and
coffee were prepared at the Frank
lin House, and that fact alone was
guaranty enough for their excel
lence, to say nothing OF their having
been served up by charming young
ladies. Much credit is due the old
er members of the GAINESVILLE Lodge
and especially the younger members
among whom were Mr.. James I.
Wood and Mr. D. Halliburton, who
were untiring in their efforts to pre-
pare the banquet and make it what
it WaS-a complete success.
