In Memoriam,

Easter Sabbath was observed at Lay Hill
with services appropriate to the day, and
= while all nature seemed joyous at the birth
OF Spring, little did we dream that our grim
enemy, Death, was at that time lowering
over the home of one of our most highly
respected neighbors and citizens, and had
claimed for his prey the head of that house,
hold, for on Friday, April Sth, b. +. Multi
can quietly breathed his last after an illness
of few days, He had reached the Goth
mile post on the road of life.
This is the third time within eight months
that the old family resting place has taken to
It's heart three members of this old Montgom-
cry family. In June, 1899, Reuben NJ,
elder brother of the deceased, was laid to
rest; In January, 1893, Basil NJ, their aged
father, was consigned to his resting place,
and on Sunday, amid great concourse of
friends who had gathered to pay the last
tribute OF respect to the beloved departed
one, we laid him to sleep beside his father
until the glorious resurrection morn. He
leaves widow and eight children to mourn
his loss. During his life he was devoted
husband, ever indulgent father, and better
than al qualities, a gentle, genial Christian.
Esteemed friend, thou hast left US,
To be with Christ above,
Again we hope to meet thee,
Around His throne of love.
IT'S true his chair is vacant,
His place none else can fill,
God gently speaks, ABE patient,
IL is my sovereign will"
All, children, think your dear one
Is not beyond your love,
And widow, your blest husband
Now reigns with God above.

Caused the Bridge Disaster.

LOUISVILLE, Dec. l6.-The close of the
first days work at the scene of yesterdays
bridge disaster has not been productive of
any results so far as the dead buried be-
meath the debris are concerned. A pile
driver and large force OF men have been
at work all day. but no boties have been
taken out. The general impression is that
most of the missing bodies have gone
down the river and may be found miles
below. Frank Miller is among the dead
recovered The record now stands: Six
dead. sixteen injured, seventeen missing.
The officers of the bridge attribute the
accident To the wind. The loss to the
company is estimated at $4,000.
The probability is that all those reported
missing are among the killed. Coroner
Mccullough held conference with the
bridge officials today and decided
to have the unclaimed dead en-
balmed. so that the bodies could he held

expense was borne by the Ph1nix Bridge
Company. Oliver F. Moore, who was
taken to the city infirmary at Jackson

broken and his spine injured. His home
is in Philadelphia. The injured at the

The plan most likely TO be adopted as to

of adherence TO the old parties. The
