The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1893-01-05
Death OF w. R. Foster, Father of
Ciifton's s. Postmaster.

On Thursday last, after brief Illness,
Mr. w. r. Foster died at his residence
near Mt Meridian, Augusta county, Va,
in his fist year.
Mr.. Foster was q highly respected and
well known citizen in the locality in
which he resided; was an official mem
Der of the Presbyterian church, serving
as Deacon for a period OF 25 years; had
been elected an Elder a few weeks prior
to his death, and was regarded as an ex-
emplary christian. Six children survive
him, five boys and one daughter, all of
whom are grown, and are holding re-
sponsible positions. Mr.. A. G.. Foster is
Postmaster Of this city, and his brother,
Ebert, is Deputy. He also has son in
the Mail Service.
A remarkable coincidence in connec>
tion with his death is, that just twelve
years previous, in the same month and
on the same day, his wife died in the
same building and room in which he
passed away.
We extend our sympathy to Postmas-
ter Foster, and to the family in their
sore bereavement.
Mr.. r. d. Nuckols, of the firm of Tay-
lor & Nuckols, of this city, attended the
funeral, which took place on Saturday,
Dec. 31st. The interlnent was in Mt.
Horeb Cemetery

a TRUE BEAR STORY.
A Fight 60 tie Death.

On last Wednesday, Mr. George A.
Alderman, who resides 12 miles north of
White Sulphur Springs, in Greenbrier
county, W. Va, while out hunting in
the vicinity of Anthony's creek, ran
across a black bear, which had been
driven from it's den by pack of dogs.
Mr.. Alderman succeeded in wounding
bruin and the dogs were trying to finish
the work of destruction, but were being
worsted, when Mr.. Alderman came to
their rescue. The bear turned upon
him, bit him in the calf of the leg and
threw him upon the ground, and was on
top of him, when he procured pine
knot within his reach, and succeeded in
releasing himself by well aimed blows,
killing the bear. In the desperate strug-
gle, one of his hands. was badly LAGER
ated. He made very narrow escape
with his life, as it was by the merest
chance that he was able to kill the in>
furiated brute The bear was of the
black species, supposed to be two years
old

A COnfiag ration.

Wednesday night, Dec. 26th, 1899, was
a scene of great eycitemen at Coving-
ton. Va. The Covington Hotel, with it's
contents, save portion of its bar, was
completely destroyed by fire. Ats O'Clock
A. H., the Hotel was discovered to be
on fire and the occupants of the house
were notified with much dispatch and
even then the flames spread SO rapidly
that some people barely had time to es-
cape from the building SO completely
was it enrapted in flames.
Our friend, W. J. Hickman, who is
engaged in the drug business and who
makes his home at the Hotel, barely
escaped and lost all he had in his
room, together with many personal
effects.
The property was formerly owned by
the McCurdy sisters, bat they had re-
Gently sold their interest to syndicate,
from whom Messrs. Camper s. Daniel
had leased it and were making quite a
success of hotel business. We sympathize
with these young men and hope their
loss will not prove SO great as reported.
