Death of venerable Citizen.-Mr.


Chandler Keys died on Wednesday even
ing last, at o'clock, at his home near this
place, in the Goth year Of his age. In the
death of this venerable and highly respected
citizen another old landmark disappears
and the community loses a valuable men,
Der, Mr.. Keys was native of Prince Will
liam county, Va, and in early manhood re-
moved to this county, where by industry
and frugality he accumulated handsome
estate. He was fond of his large circle of
friends and was never happier than when
his hospitable home was filled with them.
To the poor and needy he was kind and
considerable and no worthy applicant for as
sistance was ever turned away from his
band, father or iriend-he did his part well,
and his memory will long be cherished by
the host of friends he has left behind. He
was man of much public spirit and took
great interest not only in the affairs of the
county and State, but also in those of the
entire country. In politics he was an earn.
est Democrat, and during the late war was
an unflinching advocate of the Southern
cause. Although an active party man he
did not aspire to position, the only office he
ever held being that of Justice of the Peace
for the fourth district, which place he occu-
pied for many years. He leaves two chill
dren, a son and daughter, who have the
sympathy of our entire people in their sad
bereavement.
His funeral will take place at his late res
idence to-day friday at 3 p. NJ, with IN
terment in Rockville cemetery.

In Memoriam.

1t is with feeling of the deepest sadn ess
that attempt to pay tribute TO Che memo ry
of Eva, daughter of Mr.. G, w. Broadly, who
departed this life Sunday evening, April
14th, 1895, after a long and painful illness,
despite the efforts of medical skill which
has seldom been baffled by human maladies.
Sad, indeed, is it when we see the aged
pass away who have lived the time allotted
to man, but when the icy hand of death is
laid upon one so young, just stepping upon
the threshold of womanhood, with the bright
prospects of long life of happiness, it is in
expressibly sad. No words that can utter
can fully enumerate the many virtues OF
that young life, but as one who has known
her from childhood can say, in social life
she was highly esteemed for intelligence and
agreeable manners, but her browning excel
lencies were more conspicuous in her own
home, there her memory will be precious,
and the community in which she lived will
most keenly feel its loss, AS an evidenceot
the esteem in which she was held was the
large gathering OF friends who assembled in
the village church, where Rev. w. ], Cooke
spoke beautifully from the text, II know
that my Redeemer liveth,"
AS the sun shed its rays in splendor over
the earth, with fearful eyes and aching
hearts, she was committed to the keeping of
mother earth until the dawn of the resur'
rection morn. AS | stood by the side of the
open grave could not help but think of
Him who stood by the grave of Lazarus
and manifested his love by the shedding of
those sympathetic tears. The bere aved rela
tives and friends know well the richness of
the treasure, (they have not lost) but putin
deposit until the splendor OF that day shall
reveal the Master coming ITO mai up his
Jewels"
Friends greve not, for your loved one is
safe in the everlasting arms OF love. Father,
mother, sisters, brother,
Twas not the grim feared messenger that
came that day,
Twas an angel visited this beautiful earth
and took that flower away.
