of Mrs. Deborah Hayes took its flight
to that land where pain, and sickness
is never known.

the oldest child of family of thirteen
of whom four are still alive, one sister,
and three brothers, two of whom,

children, % grand children, and 48

As years of happy union she was left a
widow Feb. 26, 1875.
She has lived in lola with her grand
son Ira +. Patterson for the past ten
years.
Grandmother was not generally
known here as her health did not
permit her to go away from home very
much, but was loved by all who knew
her. because of her sweet spirit, and
devoted Christian life. A large part
of her life work was done in Henry
co. Iii. The friendless aud needy al
ways found her to be a sympathizer
and helper. Many an orphan. SOL

been member of the NJ. L. church.
She now belongs to the church

NOW And THEN

A simple minded fellow may be found who
has allowed the high priced credit con-
Germs to persuade him that good goods must
necessarily sell for a high price and cannot
be sold at reasonable prices. Such people
have not yet learned the value Of the CASH
SYSTEM. They should remember that we
buy in New York City, the largest and best
market in America, for spot cash and sell for
spot cash only, and that we have no losses
and that our expenses are light. Under such
circumstances, why should we not sell
cheaper &? No reason can be found.
