Death of w. ID. LOmRN.

This estimable young man died at hi:
home In this county on last Sunday, and was
buried at EbeneZer graveyard.
Mr.. LoInax was promising young business
man, and had his life been spared bright l.
reer was before him. He commenced life here
as q clerk for several of our merchants, and
10y his strict atten ton to business, his sobrie
ty, his energy, and his honesty won the re
spect and confidence of all his employers. and
was promoted from time to time. until he
gained the responsible position held at the
time of his death. After the death of the Ia
mented Charlie Wardlaw, another of our best
young men, whose brief life gave great prom.
ise or usefulness and influence, and when
Messrs. Thurber, Whyland & Co., OF New
York, were looking about for successor to
him, VIII Lomax was highly recommended
for the position and secured it. It took but a
short time for him to impress these gentle
men with the fact that he was a worthy sue.
cessor TO him whom they held in such high
esteem.
Mr.. Lomax gave great satisfaction to his
employees, Messrs. Thurber, Whyland l. Co.,
and was considered ore OF their most active
and reliable statesmen. He was diligent In
basiness, faithful TO his trusts, and frugal in
his habits. Alas! that such life should have
been so soon ended, but Gods ways are not
us our ways.

nearly as numerous as the Irish. It is
