Obituary.

This is to certify that Sister
/ SARAH NJ BRUMFIFLD was a mem-
ber Of Newhope Baptist church in
good standing and in full fellow
ship with said church at her death.
And as it has pleased God in his
divine providence to take her away
from us, we must submit, as we
know that Gods will must be done.
But we feel the loss Of Sister Brum-
field, as she was a faithful member
and We believe a Christian, as
she was always willing to give a
helping hand to anything pertain
ing tn the welfare of her church, or
the building up of Christ's king
dom. Sister Brunfeld was born
in Pike county, Mississippi, De-
ccmber 10lh, 1919, and died Febru-
airy Oath, 1892, age AZ years, 2
months and II days. Sister Brum-
field was the daughter of Ephraim
and Talitha Prescott, Of Pike coun-
ty, Miss. After Sister Brumfeld
became grown she commenced
thinking undY the preaching Of
thtGospel aboG her future destiny,
and after due consideration she be-
came convinced that she was
sinner in the sight of God, and at
length she joined Silver Creek
Baptist church in August, 1867,
and was baptized and received into
the fellowship of said church by
Elder b. IL. Crawford, who was
pastor Of the church at Chat time.
After several years Mr.. J NJ Brum-
field Sister Brumfeld's husband.
moved to Amite county, Miss, on
the east side Of the Amite river,
whore lie now resides, and Sister
BrumGeld being some distance
from her church moved her letter
to Newhope Baptist church in
Amite county, near her, residence,
on the 5lh day Of June, 1886, where
She remained a faithful member
and christian until her death.
We, The members of Newhope
church feel the loss of our departed
sister and we further extend our
sympathy in bebalfof our worthy
friend J NJ. Brumfield and his
dear children, as he has been be-
reaved of q kind and afIeetionate
companion, and bis children of a |
kind and lovely mother. Sister
Brumfield was loved by her neigh !
bors and all who knew her, was
kind to the sick, and we believe
is now resting with Jesus in that
promised land and hoping The help
Of our Heavenly Father that our
bereaved friend J. NJ. Brumield
and children may become prepared
to meet her there when they come
10 die are our prayers, amen.
Sister Brnmfeld left a husband
Ten children, mother and sisters, |

and save them for Christ sake |

MARK TWAININ IRONS
THE HUMoRlsT TRIED BEFORE AN
ADMIRALTY COURT AT SEA.

Found Guilty of Unscientihc Lying and
Sentenced to Read for Three Hours Every
Day from His own WOrlss-sportive
Proceedings ON an Atlantic Liner.
Especial Correspondence.l
NEW YORK, Nov. St was in the
month Of July last that Mark Twain was
put in irons and brought before an ad-
miralty court upon serious charges. The
story of that experience in the life of
the famous humorist has just been
brought back to this country by some Of
those who witnessed the trial and who
saw Mark Twain in chains, and nothing
he has ever written contains more hu-
morous suggestions than does this story.
Among Mark Twain's fellow passen-
gers upon the steamship Lain were ex-
Judge Dittenhoefer, Of New York; sgd
ney Webster, of Boston, an eminent law
yer; James Il. Wallach, a prominent
merchant of New York city, and a party
of twelve Yale students, among them
being the famous football champion of
Yale, Mr.. McClung.
Mark Twain had made merry with the
passengers. He told some Of his most
extraordinary stories, which, while they
had the appearance of having Oc-
CURED to him at the moment, he in
sisted We're veritable chronicles, and as
incredulity prevailed among the passen-
