DEATH OF Mrs. ED L. SMITH.-It is our
painful duty this morning to chronicle
the death of Mrs Ed l.. Smith, nee Ida
Linthcum, which occurred yesterday
morning about 7 o'clock, at her place OF
residence, the Watson House, aged q
years, 3 months and 26 days.
There has not been a sadder death III
Durham during our recollection. The
heart almost stands still in the presence
of Death, when he takes the young wife
from the loving husbands bosom, and
the mother from her darling little ones
While the death dew stands upon the
brow, affection clings to the tenantless
clay as clings the bee to the sweet calyX
of some smitten flower.
Mrs. Smith, whose seemingly untlmely
death has cast gloom over all who
knew her, leaves an affectlOnate husband
and three little children, the youngest an
infant five days old, and large circle OF
relatives and friends who are i'll the deep
est grief Human sympathy i'll such
| great distress availeth not much, nor
perhaps the prayers OF sinners, yet we
| pray that the husband and father may
| be strengthened and sustained by HIN
who knOweth what is best.
! The bereaved husband whose fireside Ii
now left desolate; the children, whose
pleas for mothers return are heartrend
| ing: the relatives who are so sorely be
reft, all have the sympathy of this PEG
pie. The grief we feel for the afflicted
ones is too deep for Us to write as W.
would like.-Durkdm Daily San, oh.
The GOLD LEAF is panied to Learn
this. Mrs. Smith at one time lived il
Henderson and had many friends here
She was good woman, of quiet man
ner and amiable disposition, and mum
bered as a friend every acquaintanc
she made. Mrs. Smith was an onl
sister of Mr.. II. c. Linthicum of on
| town.

The GOLD LEAF wants the news and in
vites its friends TO interest themselves in
its behalf. It's columns are always open
to communications which may be written
to interest, instruct or amuse the general
public. Ii you have a piece OF news, a
good short story, anything strange to
describe, bright poem, war reminescen
ees, the laugh on your neighbor, or joke
| on yourself, send it along, that the world
| may bethe wiser, the happier, the merrier
What the Jonesboro Leader says in the
following timely warning, will apply Just
! as well here: "Take care what you eat at
this time OF year. The sickness about US
at present is not due, we believe, tc sud
den changes of temperature, but to a
great extent to the eating of immature
vegetables, half-ripe cherries, apples not
ripe at all, and the like. The wonder is
that more do not die on such diet. For
humanity's sake, do let fruit and vegeta-
bles get ripe before you eat it or under
take to sell it.

of Horner's school at Oxford last week

S. E. Young, Henderson, n. c. He

won such high hOnOrs.

twining themselves about her in ten
drills of deepest affection, the bright
