good fortune to attend. The preach.

crowded audience with eager and raps
attention. Rev. DR.. Beatty, that i'm

a sermon on the doctrine Of Justifca-

elegant and hospitable manner in
which they had been entertained bY..
the good people of our city.

Chenault.

David W. Chenault departed this
life April Oath, after an illness of
eighteen months, His funeral was
preached Sunday morning at the Bap-
list church by Rev. Everette Gill, be-
fore large congregation of relatives
and friends and his remains were laid
to rest in Machpelah Cemetery.
The subject of this sketch was a
son of William Landy and Virginia
Chenault and was born in Madi-
son county, April Il, 1885, and
on Marc l, 1912, with his
parents came to this county. In 1862
his father died and he and his brother
Frank took charge of the farm and
managed it successfully until the close
of the war in 1865 when he decided
on farming as business. He had
been educated at the home schools and
had prepared himself for the practice
of law, but owing 10 delicate health
abandoned it.Twenty years ago under
the pastorate of Rev. j. Pike Powers
during protracted meeting conduct
ed by Rev. Green Clay Smith he
Joined the Baptist church, for time
he had charge of of the Bible Glass in
the Sunday School and for long per-
iod of years was treasurer of the
church. September II, 1879, he was
married to Miss Emma l.. Reed and to
them was born six children. His
wife and five children survive him
Mr.. Chenault was of a positive char
acter, determined and resolute and
due to this in large measure was his
success in life. When he began a
work he carried it to completion, the
word failure being unknown to his
vocabulary. His family attachments
were great, and though reconciled to
his fate from that dread unrelenting
disease he was anxious to be spared to
rear his family. In his church work
as in other duties he did his part
cheerfully. To his family he was
kind and affectionate and their want;
was his pleasure.
