on Sunday morning last, September 3Oth,
DR.. l. II. Taylor, another one Of our oldest
citizens, passed quietly away, at his resi-
dencc, about three miles southeast of this
place Thus one by one the links that
bind us to the past are broken, and we are
called upon TO mourn the loss of honored
members of society. The doctors health
had been failing rapidly for some time,
and his death was not unexpected. He
was well and favorably known by the
whole community, and his memory will
remain green among them. His funeral
services were held on Tuesday afternoon
last, ard his remains were laid to rest by
the side of those of his brother in Elm
wood Cemetery, the physicians of this
vicinity acting as pall-bearers and Rev.
W. G.. Eggleston conducting the funeral
ceremonies. DR.. Taylor was III the 10th
year of his age.

story that has so often been told about
lion. Henry CT. Davis, of this State, is
going the rounds of the newspapers once
more with slight variations, and rs some
Of our readers may have never read it we
produce il according to the latest version:
"EX-Sergcant-at-Arm French, in his
interesting lecture, 'Ten Years Among
the Senator's relates the following anus
ing anecdotc concerning Senator Davis,
of West Virginia: There was Davis, of
West Virginia. From the humble position
of a brakeman upon the railroad, lac had
fought his upward way TO two honorable
elections to the Senate. An industrious,
useful, honorable member. \ diligcnt,
conscientious worker on appropriation
committees, and, with Window, earnest
in all efforts for improving and cheaper
ing transportation from the interior to the
seabOard. Ii is wonderful how the intlu-
cnce of early education, or early habits,
cling to us in after life. Senator Davis,
who, have just told you, was in early
days 4 brakeman, once gave the Senate an
emphatic demonstration of this oft-noted
fact. Judge Thurman, being generous
snuff-taker, carried an immense red ban
danna handkerchief; and when he arose
10 speak, usually, Us preliminary, grasped
his nose with the red bandanna and gave
blast like 4 trumpet. Ii was well toward
morning of wearisOmc all-night session,
and Senator Davis was asleep, his head
resting upon the desk. But l will say for
the Senator that he was not often asleep in
the Senate. Senator Edmunjs had pro-
vokcd Judge Thurman to 4 speech, and,
by Introduction, the Judge unfurled his
red bandanna and blew blast of more
than usual power. Mr.. Davis may have
been dreaming of his old railroad days; at
any rate, he sprang to his feet in half
Gazcd condition, and, catching sight of
the red ilag-the old signal of danger
and seeming to imagine that he had heard
a shrek of alarm from the open throttle
of locomotive calling for "down brakes"
seized his desk, and, by the brakeman's
firm, quick twist, wrenched it from the
floor. was not present on this occasion,
and therefore cannot assert the entire
truth of the story from personal knowl-
edge: But il WAS often repeated about
the Senate Chamber, and never heard
amy of the details called in question:"
