OBITUARY..

On Thursday morning. July 18th
1894, Mr. John Robert Herring, after a
lingering and painful illness patiently
borne, entered into rest at his home
near Scotland Neck, at half pas: six
| o'clock.
I Mr.. Herring was Virginian by birth,
but the family Bible having been des
troyed by fire years ago, his age was
not accurately known. There is good
reason to suppose, however, that he
! he had passed threescore years. He
came to this State when about seven
teen or eighteen years old, remaining a
year in BERTHE county, and then COM
ing to Scotland Neck, where he has
ever since resided. He began work
here with the late William r. Smith
and remained with him twelve years,
thus establishing friendship which
lasted through lite.
On October 81, 1857, he was married
to Miss Cornelia J. Whitaker, daughter
of the late Jesse Whitaker, by whom
he had six sons and two daughters, of
whom daughter and two sons survive
him. Mr.. Herring was a steady, indus
trious man, attending strictly to his
own business, and endeavoring by hon
est work to provide comfortable home
for himself and family. For the past
few years he has been failing in health,
having had several attacks OF la grippe,
the last Of which. occurring about six
months ago, rapidly developed into
consumption. From the very begin
ming OF his sickness he felt that he
would never be we'll again, and his one
thought seemed to be that he might be
prepared to 60 when his summons
should come. With tears in his eyes
he prayed that he might be with Jesus
in the hereafter, and he often said he
loved everybody and he wanted every
body to love him. Thus with truly
penitent heart, and in charity with all
the world, he has entered into that rest
which remaineth to the people of God,
where the communion begun here with
those below, continues on with the
saints above. w. J. S.
