Died, in this city, Tuesday afternoon,
July "a, 1894, OF a complication of diseases,
Miss Dovie s., daughter of Capt. Samuel
J. and Lizzie M. Andrew, aged q years.
The death OF this most estimable young
lady was not unexpected. For some time
she bad been very ill and the visit of
death was anticipated. The grand and
noble character of Miss Dovie, her life
and the precious memory of her speaks
louder and more certain than words from
tongue or pen. She was a pure woman,
whose hopes lived where the angels live,
and whose mission in this life was we'll
and faithfully performed. She lived well
in the academy OF life to earn admission
into the great university of God. She
welcomed the visit of DEATHS angel as
aud love of Him who gave her to the
world.
Miss Dovie was born in North Carolina,
April %, 1857, and came with her parents
to this city in her infancy. Here among
our people she was reared and educated,
and from her accustomed place in the
home, the church and society, she will be
greatly missed. She labored well in her
Masters vineyard, and in the home, her
lovable character n Christian graces
dispelled many a cloud of sorrow. A noble
Christian, a true young lady, such as
elevate and ennoble humanity, such as
exert influences for good, and such as
when they are taken from earth, leave
behind O monument 'more lasting than
brass and clearer than pure water,r was
Miss Dovie Andrew. An all powerful
God has called her to Him, and as she has
enriched earth, she will glorify heaven.
To her relatives and sorrowing friends the
INTELLIaENcER extends sympathy.
RESOLUTIONS.
To the Worshipful Master, Wardens
and Brethren of Lexington Lodge No. 1i9,
A.. F. and A. Masons:
In the mysterious Providence of God we
Of u number. The column of beauty
has fallen, and our lodge is clothed in the
habiliments of mourning. Brother James
NJ. Slusher is no more. In an mex pected
moment, death snatched him from our
embrace, and his seat is vacant in Our
4hall. On Saturday, july Z, 1894, his life,
strong and Vigorous as it was, and so
promising of many years of usefulness,
was suddenly cut short by drowning, and
his spirit was ushered into the presence
Of his Maker. We would indulge the
hope that he was kindly admitted into
Celestial Lodge above to share the rewards
Of the faithful craftsman. On earth he
was . faithful, worthy brother, and his
presence was always agreeable to his
brethren. Unassumiug and modest by
nature and education, he was always re-
firing in his conduct, and preferred to
honor q promote his brethren rather
than to be honored by them. Though
yet in his young manhood, he was sud
denly called from labor to r~efreshment,
and 1t only remains for us Il emulate his
virtues and cherish his memory. There
fore,
Resolved, That in the death Of Brother
James M. Slusher our lodge has lost a
good man and true, and one ready to
discharge the duties devolving upon him
as q Mason and brother, the community
an upright and honest citizen and kind
neighbor and friend, and his family a
gentle. faithful husband, n IN indul-
gent, self sacrificing father, for it was 10
save his child that he gave up his own
life.
Resolved, That this lodge will ever
cherish with delight his memory, and
will endeavor to perpetuate the same by
defeating q page of our records to record
this memorial and these resolutions; that
we will wear the usual badge of our
for thirty days.
Resolved, That a copy OF these resolu-
tions be sent the widow and family of the
deceased, and also a copy be furnished the
city papers for publication.
F~raternally submitted.
