zens. Judge Abraham woodall died a. his

Of w. A. Phillips his star began 10 wane. I,
was used against him in the election OF lss5,
and he was beaten for the once Of district
Judge by his opponent, Steven Hildebrand.
He was considered a good judge Of law and
was rather lenient In his administration which
caused many to like him. He was good ma
tured, jolly and humorous, and his old friends
pnd associates will miss his eompanionshIp
sadly.
He leaves only one son, Thomas woodall
who is q nne manly fellow and we hope to sec
him take mp the motto where his honorable
father has laid 1. down and 90 forward a.
