Obituary.

A wide void has been created in
our midst by the death of two good
persons
They were Mrs. Tommie G. Hall,
who died at 3:45 on the morning of
February 10, and her husband. Mr.,
W. +. Hall, on the morning of Feb.
23rd, and strange to say, at the
same hour. They both died of
typho-maIarial fever. Mrs. Hall
was born iu this parish in 1866,
where she has since resided, and her
husband in South Carolina in 1860,
whose parents, DR.. E. j. Hall and
Sallie E. Hall, moved to Bossier
parish in 1861, where be lived up to
the time of his death.
The subject of this notice was
married, March End, 1887, of which
marriage two children, a daughter
of four years and a son of Is months,
survive. Although Mrs. Hall died
four days prior to her husband, the
misfortune OF her death never came
to his knowledge. One who has
known them intimately, and who,
in common with the rest of the com
munity, sincerely laments their un-
timely deaths, cannot permit the
occasion to pass without putting
upon record his knowledge of their
personal qualities and virtues.
Mrs. Hall was held in high esteem
by her husband, her mother, her
sisters and brother, and admired by
all whose fortune it had been to
make her acquaintance. Ola kind,
gentle and sympathetic disposition
which made and retained fIiends.-
She was a christian in the true sense
of the term.
The death of such person is, at
any age, to relatives and friends
premature. The death of Mrs. Hall
| the more so, as she was only 26
years of age. But we must not
murmur at the ways of Providence,
a. the life she has entered is the
portal to one of eternal bliss.
Will, as we knew him, was de
voted husband, affrctionate father
and dutiful son, brave and generous
to a fault, thoughtful of every inter
est of family and friends. We
humbly trust that his spirit has
reached the realms of eternal rest
and ere this enjoying sweet commu
MON with his devoted wife in TIL
Eternal City. A FRIEND.

Died:

At Benton, in the Goth year of
her age, of typho malarial fever,
Mrs. Tonmie Q. Hall.
Mrs. Hal! was born in 1866, and
was the youngest child of Mrs. NJ.
E. Caldwell, who survives her. Tis
indeed sad duty to chronicle the
death of such an estimable lady,
Mrs. Hall was dutiful wife, fond
and loving mother. She was the
idol of every one that knew her, and
the pride of her foud mother. The
angel of death has come; she has
oheyed the summons and her sweet
soul has joined the innumerable
host that have gone into the great
Futurity.
Weep not dear friends, she is not
dead:
"There is no death, the stars go down,
To rise upon fairer shore,
And bright In heavens ,ieweled crown
They shina forever more" a
Mrs. Hall was model wife and
ever sought to please and comfort
those around her. She loved and
caressed her two little children, and
she in her last moments seemed
ready to go, bat hated to leave
them. Best on, sweet soul, rest on
Your memory will ever be cherished
and loved by those dear relative:
and friends left behind, and good
friends, remember there is balm il
Gilead for all our wounds. W.
tender our heartfelt sympathy tt
| the bereaved. We know that word
are but hollow mockery in this, thel
hour of grief, bat there is com
forting solace in looking aloof tt
that home where death never enters
She has gone so young, beautiful
and fair; just i'll the beauty OF VIC
maDhood; but twas Thy will, an
oh! Father, let Thy will be DONE
What comforting thought, what
blessed hope to know that thou ar
asleep in Jesus.
When we have to answer th
dread messenger, we earnestly pra
that thy sweet apirit may welcom
us on the shores of a blissful eteru
ty. Peace to thy ashes +.
