Death OF Claude White.

We are indeed sorry to chronicle
the death of Claude White, who
died last Monday in Forsythe, Ga.
Of Typhoid fever. lie had accom-
panied his father Mr.. J. NJ. White
to Atlanta about two months ago,
and while waiting Oh him was at
tackled with fever from which he
never recovered. Claude was q
young man about II years old, of
exceptionally good moral character
and bore the impress of having been
trained by godly and christian pa
rentage. 1t is seldom you see a
young man of his age, surrounded
with the temptations thatmust nee
cssarily come, so free from the pop
ular vices, that SO easily entice
young men, as he. 1t is indeed a
sad thing for one so young to die
amidst such prospects Of glorious
future life. But the poet says,
"Those whom the gods love die
Young
While lie was away from home,
yet his father, mother and brother
Clyde, were around his dying couch
to administer to his last earthly
wants. His remains were inferred
III Forsytle, where relatives of the
family live.
