IN MEMORaAM.

In this city the morning Of Wednesday, the
sixth of November, at $50 A. NJ, terminated the
noble and well. speut life of Mr.. Max Kwecki,
aged thirty-two years. His remains were taken to
cambridge, Ga for interment, of which place he
had for a number of years been a resident. From
the beginning of his sickness, weeks lingering
illness, he had all the untiring attention that de
voted brother, loving aunt, relatives and friends
could tender; but it seemed of avail, as it was
the will of an Allwise Providence to take from
their midst beloved relative, whose goodness,
true nobeness and kind favors might well be CHS
eled upon marble Nothing can be more solemn
than to see one of fully matured manhood snatched
suddenly from all earthly scenes, hid from mortal
view; one whose character unblemished, pos
sessed of simplicity, coIrtesy, and all ennobling
qualities, he endeared imself to all around. He
was devoted brother, afectionate and dutful SOD,
and won deep respect, esteem and regard of all who
knew him. We feel and know that he calmly rests
above with the loved ones who have gone before
him. Still we cannot help but miss the good face,
kindly smile and gentle words. And to the grief
stricken brothers, sisters and relatives, whose
hearts are bowed down with sadness, proffer my
deep sympathy and coincidence in this their irrepar-
able bereavement, and pray that God in His good
ness may comfort and alleviate their sorrow, and
help them to say. "Thy will, o God, not mine,
be done" Farewell! Gods finger has touched
thee, and thou sleepest we'll
One who cherishes sacredly Maxs memory.

that your troublesome catarrh is the result oil

Not q bit of 1t, but B. B. B. has proven to be q

Died on the evening of the 18th inst, at the
residence Of Mayor c. c. Pearce, Mrs Dalcda
Bull, aged seventy six years. Thus has passed
away another of the old landmarks that connect
US with the early history Of this section. Mrs
Bull (nee Lambert) came to Tallahassee with
her parents from North Carolina in 1898 In
1880 she was married TO the late Bryan Bull
After few years of welded happiness she was
left widow with four young children two sons
and two daughters. These she carefully sought
to train up Alright. and fondly hoped they would
grow up to be the staff and comfort of her de
clning years Her cherished hopes seemed
likely to be realized, for in the course of time
she was surrounded by grown sons and daugh-
tiers who gladly and cheerfully administered to
the wants of the widowed mother. But, a.as !
how often are our fondest hopes blighted. First,
her younger son died in the service of his coun-
try during the late war. Shortly after the war
her two daughters sickened and died, and few
years ago, "Aleck," her first and main support,
was also taken away. Like Naomi of old. she
was left in her old age widowed and childless
But though bereft of her children, there were
those who kindly ministered to her; and prompt
ed by feelings Of affection would gladly have
made their home hers. But with that feeling of
independence that always characterized her, she
chung to the old homestead, halswed by so many
memories, until within few weeks Of her death.
Her simple, unostentaious piety, her cheerful,
ness under affection, and her pleasant, social
manners have gained for her the respect, esteem
and affection of all her acquantances For years
she had been q member Of the Presbyterian
Church of this city, and at the time of her death
was the oldest member Her funeral took place
at the Presbyterian Church on the afternoon OF
the 18th inst, and nearly the entire community
testified their respect to her memory by attend
ing
