But Still Lives.

We are informed that last We'd
nesday evening, after an illness of
several weeks, George Palmer, a
well-known trusty old colored man,
gave up all signs of life. He was
as the dead; no beating of the
heart was perceptible. His wife,
family and friends mourned him as
dead. He was robed in the black
clothes that were to go into the
grave with his clay. Thursday
morning about 6 o'clock, when the
watchers we're still around the bier
of the departed, what was the hor-
ror of the negroes to see the sup
posed dead man sit bolt upright
with wide staring eyes. It was too
much for their simple minds.
They bolted for the doors, the
windows-every chance of egress
wastaken advantage Of. When they
had told it to the neighbors, with
awed faces and quaklng limbs,
they crept back to see if Palmer
was dead andifit was only hideous
illusion, or if it was his troubled
spirit come back to haunt them.
1t was neither. George was talk
alive and is now on the broad high
way to recovery. The mistake
| which came SO near causing him to
be inferred alive was caused by the
deep, death like trance into which
he had fallen.
For years this faithful old darkey
was an employe of the LEDGER
Office and he was never known to
shirk his duties as janitor of the
same. 1t was with joy that those
who best know him heard that his
chances were good for a number Of
years more on this earth.
