Sudden Death Of a GOOD Man.

Samuel P Campbell, OF Midvale, Rock bridge
county. was a man held in high esteem as a
neighbor and friend, and his death is deeply
lamented. The circumstances of his death are
very sad.
On the afternoon OF the 9th, he mounted his
horse from stile, not placing his feet in the
stirrups. He was very large and feshy, and
the horse suddenly jumping he was thrown
violently to the ground, receiving severe In
ternal injuries. from the effect of which he died
early the following morning. The funeral SER
vices took place at his residence and the burial
at Fairfield cemetery on the 18th instant, at
tended by one of the largest assemblages ever
witnessed in that vicinity, Rev. Mr.. Burgess,
of the NJ. E. Church South, his pastor. officlat-
ing.
His wife and married daughter and sew
eral sons survive the deceased, who have the
sympathies OF the entire community, for their
bereavement cannot be described by words.
Nor has this dispensatlon fallen with crushing
weigh upon the stricken household only, for
the poor of that vicinity had in him on ever
and liberal friend. His h ospitality was gem
erous and was bestowed upon the stranger, as
the neighbor, with unaffected sincerity.

Fishersyille Farmers Club.

CALLED MEETING-TEsTING HAY HARvEsTERs.
The Fishersville Farmers Club was called to
meet at the residence of Mr.. ]. R. Kemper on
April Sd, for the purpose of meeting Mr.. John
E. Kirk, President of the Acme Hay Harvest
er Co.. OF Peoria, ILL.,, and to negotiate with
him for his machinery. considerable mum
her of the members attended this meeting, and
the day was spent in thoroughly examining
the model and workings of the Acme Hay
Stackers and Monarch" Sweep Rakes. This
machinery is made to take up the hay directly
from he swath and it is then delivered to the
stacker which elevates to the top of the rick,
twenty five feet high or more. 1t is not nee
essary to touch the hay with fork until it is
on the rick. After thorough examination.
and full discussion, the following gentlemen
gave their orders for this machinery:
]. W. Harnesberger. Capt. Conner, DR.. Hang
er, A. FL McCue. P. II. Rock, Hugh Hamilton.
J. P. Hamilton, ]. z. Kemper, w. A. Freed,
Robert Goodwin, J. S. Caldwell, J. L. Black,
G. C. Harness DIR. Hildebrand, J.W. Church
man and j. L. Wallace.
The general opinion of those present seemed
to be that the use of this machinery makes the
farmer master of the situation SO far as hay
making is concerned, and supplied long-felt
want In that direction. This being a special
meeting, no fnrther business was transacted,
aud the Club adjourned to meet the Sd Satur
day of April at which time this model can be
seen; also a recently patented grinder. which
sharpens a mower knife while the machine
is in motion. and in few moments time.
