Passes Away--OtheP Deaths.

Mr.. Orange Bennett, one OF the old
est residents of this city, died sud-
denly last night at his residence, No.
81 east Grace street. The deceased
was in his 82d year. and during the
greater part Of his long and useful life
he was engaged in the tobacco business
in this city. For many years he was a
member of the firm OF l.. j. Grant u Co.
Born aud raised in Richmond, he grew
up with the city, and its interests and
people were always close to his heart.
Hc was man of warm, generous i'm
pulses, and during the war no one but
himself knew his many noble charities
to those who did not possess the means
he enjoyed. He was man OF I'M
swerving business integrity.
Mr.. Bennett was perhaps the Oldest Ma
son in the city. and in his fraternity he
was held in universal esteem and was
always the recipient of outspoken affec-
ton. He was one Of the first members
OF Trinity church and at the time Of his
death was one Of the trustees.

years, and since April last, when she
had very severe hemorrhage, her
strength had failed steadily. Mrs. Knight
WAS model wife and mother and lady
of lovely character. She bore her suf-
ferings, which at times were great, with
heroic courage. 1t was great trial for
her to give up her five bright and inte-
resting children, but as the end drew
nigh she became perfectly resigned to
leave them in the hands OF the Lord.
The funeral will take place from the
house at o'clock this afternoon, Rev.
DIR. Cooper officiating. The interment

A friend of mine told me the following
story. which will never forget: He
said his brother shot q wild goose and
broke its wing. He took the goose
home and tanned it. In the mean while
he caught young fox and tanned that
also. One night the fox and goose went
of. Of course he thought the fox had
eaten the goose. They both stayed
away a week exactly. One morning
they both came back together. He kept
them some time and afterwards sold
them. The gentleman that related the
story to me is known throughout the
county as man OF the strictest integrity
and says he will vouch for the truth Of it.
