A telegram announcing the death OF
this venerable gentleman was received by
Judge Richard Field, brother OF the de-
ceased last Tuesday morning. The sad
news soon spread over the city, n TO
many of our citizens who enjoyed the in
innate friendship of the doctor, n who
remembered him as last seen, as the pic
ture OF robust manhood, 1t was Indeed
unexpected: His death was very sudden.
1t came while he was sitting erect in a
chair. lie had been up with his daugh-
ter who is i'll and being unable to sleep
did not retire. The angel OF death came
without warning and bore him to that
home beyond the stars. And thus has
passed from this life one of Saline oun
TVS most prominent physicians, and most
substantial citizens. He was for many
years a resident OF this county, and was
identified largely with the interest Of La
fayette. Here it was that in former days
he was married to Miss Ola Catron, daugh-
ter of the late Christopher Catron, who
with five affectionate children survives
him. In medical circles Doctor Field
ranked very high. Always a hard student,
he had by close application mastered his
profession. As n husband he was kind,
gentle and affectionate; rs a father, noble
self sacrificing, provident and forgiving
and as a citizen he won the admiration
came in contact. But he has gone now
He has been released from the cares anG
suffering of this world, and we will moi
mourn for him, as those who have nc
hope. He is not dead, but gone before
and those to whom he was near and dear
can look forward to that happier day
when the God OF Israel shall summon
them to come and JOIN him in that bliss
ful realm, where all is peace and happi
ness, where cares do not brood in sorrow
ing hearts, but where life and joy arr
eternal. The example he rave to thu
world is worthy of emulation. His life
has enriched both heaven and earth. A
noble man, an honored citizen, whom to
know was to admire, whose friendship
was sought by all and one who was evel
loyal to a friend, true to a principle. ant
faithful to a trust, has gone to his reward

ants. He also wants to have the direct

politics in the governors journey north

on the Sd of next March, and ii is gen
orally believed that Gov. Tillman has been
casting envious glances toward a seat in
the front row to the right of the Vice
