pleased with California. At the solicita-
ton of number Of his friends, Mr.. Dun

Mr.. F. NJ. Murphy, more familiarly
known as ''Bud Murphy" died at his
home this city last Thursday evening,
aged a. out 48 years. Mr.. Murphy receiv-
ed slight stroke of paralysis about three
years ago, and for year or more has been
confined to his room. though he was able
to assist himself until about three weeks
ago, when change for the worse came
over him. Mr.. Murphy was born, reared
and has always resided in Anderson. and
we doubt if there ever was one of our cit
izens who was better known or more gen.
orally esteemed. He was of genial,
lively disposition, and made friend of
every person whom he came in contact
with. He was plain, humble man, and
q good citizen in every sense of the word.
He was strictly honest and upright in all
has gone down to his grave leaving good
name behind him, which is better than
riches. He was member of the Baptist
Church. On Friday afternoon, after i'm
pressive funeral services, conducted by
Rev. A. A. Marshall, his remains were
laid beside those Of his wife, who had pre-
ceded him to the grave several years ago,
in the Baptist cemetery. Nine children
are left to mourn hlsldeath.
A. brilliant wedding occurred in the
Baptist Church at Bolton on yesterday
"wednesday morning, at 10 o'clock, the
contracting parties being Mr.. John NJ.
Geer and Miss Ella MCGEE, both of Bolton.
The Church was beautifully and artistical.
ly decorated, and filled to its capacity by
the friends of the popular young couple.
To the sweet strains Of the wedding march
skillfully executed by Miss George Nc
David, the hanpy couple, with their at
