OBITUARY.
JOHN Q. POWELL.

oOAN W ION NIL.
1t is with a sad heart that we ATTEMPT
to chronicle this tribute of respect
sacred to the memory of the one whose
name heads this article.
John G. Powell was born in Leesburg,
Washington County, Tennessee, March
q, 1923, and closed his earthly career
at his home, near Rheatown, Greene
county, on the evening of March 90.
1895, aged 70 years and 20 days.
He was married to the oldest daugh.
ter of the late Samuel Hayes. After
a happy welded life of nearly fifty
years she had the sad duty to close his
eyes and follow him to his last resting
place in the old Milburnton church
yard. This happy union was blessed
with nine children, six of whom, one
son and five daughters, survive him.
Several years ago he made a profes.
sion of religion and joined the Method.
list Episcopal Church, and henceforth
lived to adorn his profession.
During the late war his whole heart
beat with Union, and he prayed, labor
ed and wept under the flag that now
floats over the brave, true and tried
Union. Upon returning home at the
close of the war, with his all
destroyed, body enfeebled with disease
from hardships and exposure On the
battle field, but with mind clear and
heart full of love for his home and
family, and with untiring energy and
frugality, he accumulated and left a
beautiful home for his family.
AS a citizen, he was high toned, hon.
orable, aspiring and benevolent to all.
AS a husband and father he was kind,
gentle, loving and tender.
His last illness was slow and gradual,
and attended with much weakness and
pain, yet grace was given him to bear
all with meekness and patience. Slow
ly he descended into the dark valley of
death, imperceptible almost to those
around him, leaning upon the arms of
his friends, telling them there was not
a cloud of doubt as to his acceptance
with God; that soon he would be at
home with his precious mother. Truly,
a brave soldier of the cross has fallen.
Over his bereaved home the mantle of
honor and purity hangs. Ever let it
wave as an inspiration to grand and
noble lives.
Bereaved ones, you can meet again
when life's battles are over.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure known to the medi-
cal fraternity. Catarrh being a consti-
itutional disease needs a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys.
TEN, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing its
work. Tge proprietors have 80 much

that it fails to cure. Send for list of
