Wilhite, and two sons, Mr.. F. I. Wilhite,
one Of Andcrson's most progressive, en-
terprising and successful business mon,
and DR.. j. o. Wilhite, an accomplished,
skillful and rising physician of our city.
AS husband and father DR.. Wilhite was
affectionate and indulgent. Flo was de.
voted to his wife and fond Of his children
and grandchildren, and was never rs
happy and contentcd as when he was
with them.
DR.. Wilhite as a physician was learned,
careful, attentive and successful in a
marked degree. He kept thoroughly up
with tho progress Of his profession. He
was very active man and did very
largo and lucrative practice. lie was
hard worker, large part of his practice
being country practice, and In 1870,
when returning from visit to some pa
tient, he was thrown from his buggy and
his thigh broken. It trequired six months
him with slight lirap afterwards. Ho
was very attentive to his patients and felt
deep interest in their troubles, being
naturally of kind and sympathetic ma
turc. He was warm friend of DR.. j.
Marion Sims, of New York, and was as
sociated from time to time in different
ways with many Of the leading physi-
clans of the country. He was also man
of more than ordinary travel and ac-
quaintancc, both with people and places,
and, being keen observer, profted
much by these experiences. During his
practice he accumulated quite handsome
property, although it is probable that no
physician in Anderson over did larger
charity practice. He was always ready to
respond to the necessities of the poor and
the needy.
DR.. Wilhite was first member of the
Presbyterian Church, but before he came
to Anderson he joined the Baptist
Church, of which he was consistent
and earnest member up to his death. Flo
was member of tho Building Commit
tee which supervised the erection of the
present Church before it's enlargement,
and was always interested in its welfare
and progress. He was sincere Chris
tian, and gave to his family in his last
illness many evidences of his resignation
and faith. He was not an obtrusive
man, and did not push himself forward
among men, but won his reputation and
prominent position by his quiet worth
and merit.
In his last illness he showed up to the
last the most thorough comprehension OF
his case, foretelling its different stages
would frequently feel his own pulse and
ask the attendant physicians as to the
pulse and respiration, and thus with his
mental faculties clear he qietly passed
from time to eternity with that calm and
perfect faith, which is the fitting close to
long and useful life.
On Sunday afternoon his remains were
placed to rest in the Baptist cemetery,
after appropriate remarks from his pastor,
Rev. o. L. Martin, in the presence Of
very large concourse of sorrowing
friends. The funeral services were con-
Quoted by Hiram Lodge, a. F. NJ, ofwhich
he was member, and the Knights Of
Honor, OF which he was also member,
its oldest and most houored citizens.

see some fine games. The members of the
club will be at considerable expense in ar

posed to render that popular opera, "Pi-

Tuesday evening for the purpose of raising
funds to assist them in defraying ex-

introduced during the evening, and those

that the champions of last year will not
be in the race this season.-[S. F. Re-

Exporting Live Geese from Russia.

Live geese are exported from Russia
to Germany and Austria in very large
numbers. An export house of Warsaw
intends building special cars for the
transportation of geese directly to their
places of destination, if the railroad
managers will grant them permission to
run the cars. The ministry on roads of
intercommunication was notified of the
proposal of that firm, and its favorable
decision is expected. The cars are to be
constructed with appliances to change
from the broad gauge of the Russian
lines to the narrow gauge of the German
lines without loss of time.-St. Peters

Lawson and Conley battle this even
ing at the Pastime club. There
will be number of preliminary rounds
before the event of the evening is called.
Conley is reported to be in good condi-
ton. Those who know say that he is
strong and active. His admirers argue
that Lawson has seen his best day and
that it is number of years since he
held the championship of Australia. They
also point to the fact that Lawson was
in the hospital when he first came to
America, and that he may have grown
stale since his last fights. At all events,
the enthusiastic Conley men should not
overlook the fact that their man has
never yet shown himself to be top
sawyer. The club directors expect a
good mill.

under an arrest of character, before the
church courts, on the charge of immor-
ality.
The HERALD man was also informed
that the church was moving promptly
to bring him to trial.
The disgrace of the Rev. Edgar Dun
bar will fall like thunder clap from
a clear sky. Outside of the church
court, nothing was breathed about the
affair, and the HERALD this morning
gives the first information in regard to
one of the strangest discoveries on
record. The Rev. Seth Burnett of Ar
kansas, and the Rev. Edgar Dunbar of
California, are one and the same person.
This is remarkable statement, but it
is stated on the authority of the church
officials to be an indisputable fact. That
this discovery should be made after
twenty years is also another remarkable
circumstance.
Mrs. Burnett, the deserted wife,
learned that her husband had been
seen in California. This was several
months since. Mrs. Burnett followed
up the clue without any loss of time.
Photographs were aent to Southern Cal
ifornia and they so resembled the Rev.
Edgar Dunbar that it alarmed some of
the people who were making the in
quiry. Gould the Rev. Edgar Dunbar
be the Rev. Seth Burnett? asked one of
the other. 1t seemed almost incredible.
Yet the Rev. Seth Burnett of Arkansas
had been butcher before be had be-
come a preacher and the Rev. Edgar
Dunbar was also a butcher before he
became a preacher. That was certainly
strange coincidence, but still the
church people conducting the investiga-
tion hoped that it might be case of
mistaken identity.
'sThe Rev. Seth Burnett has part
of his fore6nger off," wrote Mrs.
Burnett. So had, it was ascer-
tanned, the Rev. Edgar Dunbar.
1t was also learned that the Rev. Seth
Burnett had several front teeth out and
wore plate. So has the Rev, Edgar
Dunbar.
Mrs. Dunbar has also been recognized
as Mrs. Herndon, the runaway wife of
the Rev. Herndon. A former neighbor,
who came to California, met Mrs. Dun
bar, and she knew at once that she was
Mrs. Herndon. Six parties positively
identity the Rev. Edgar Dunbar as the
Rev. Seth Burnett, who SO basely de-
serted his wife and children, and
who, also, broke up another
home. If Seth Burnett was mar
ried to Mrs. Herndon, then both
of them are guilty of bigamy. If they
were not married then both are guilty of
adultery.
The Rev. Dunbar or Burnett is now
in New York, where he went. as he
stated, to have an operation performed
on his present wife.
He is a man of about 45 or 80 years
of age and has grown up children by
both of the women in the case.
The result of the deliberations of the
church court has been telegra phed to
New York and, although the ex-Rev.
Burnett Dunbar owns considerable
in this section, he will doubt
less never return here.
The church people show commendable
spirit in not attempting to shield such
preachers by keeping this matter secret
They argue that if there is any moral
rottenness in their society, they should
expose it.
The publication OF the Rev. Edgar
Dunbar's downfall will be read with
surprise by thousands of people in this
community who are we'll acquainted with
him, and who have had the utmost con-
fidence in him and admiration for his
talent.
