The place where one of Overs last
two shots struck was found in the side
of the door, about four or five inches too
high for the burglars head. No place
could be found where the other shot
struck, and it must have hit the man, al
though some of the bleeding may have
been caused by being cut on the glass as
he plunged through.
The burglar left behind him in his
flight large sack which he had nearly
filled with plug tobacco. He took moth

A Gard To The Public.

We desire to state through these
columns that we, as a whole, or as
individuals are in no wise con-
nected with the attraction that is
being adve rtized for June 4 under
the erroneous name of "Field Day..
1t is but justice to us that this
statement be made to n most gen
erous public, who have given us
such unbounded patronage. We
assure our friends that we may at
some future day offer to them a
day of amusement in the form of a
genuine "Field Day" and when
such day shall come we have not
the least fear but what we shall be
accorded the same old cheerful
willing support Of the Public. A
Field Day without Field Day
sports is like cherry pie without
cherries. We bespeak for the
management of the coming at
traction all the success that such
attractions may have.

Obituary.

Robert Lafayette Patton,younR'
est son OF ELI and Hester Patton
was born November. IS, 1869, died
may 25th. 1896, sged 26 years, 6
months and ten day. He leaves
dutiful father and mother, two
kind brothers, and three loving
sisters who mourn their loss. He
was preceded to the Great Beyond
by sister, who has welcomed him
home.
Robert was mild and gentle In
disposition, quiet and inoffensive,
He we'll knew.the virtue Of obedi-
ence, and the Injunction, "Children
obey your parents,"was never pen.
ned for him. He would Away re-
main at home with his mother
while the other children would be
at social gatherings. At school he
was industrious, respectful and
obedient to his teacher, and above
all he was truthful.
His life was not characterized
by many Of the giddy ways and
habits that are so often prevalent
in youth, and when we consider
the many pitfalls that surround
the feet OF the young, he Is to be
commended upon his course OF life,
He endured untold suffering and
pain upon the bed Of affiiction,
with patience and fortitudc.
Death was not unexpected by him
and he daily awaited the message,
when the great mystery OF life
fades into the mystery Of what we
call "death," and In this beautiful
month OF May when nature is
clothed in the garment OF life,
when winters dead Is resurrected
In buds and blossoms, IL IS fitting
that the soul should take Its flight
to a higher, purer, better, and
spiritual life.
He was not a devoted christian
through life,- yet entertained this
belief with many christian virtues,
he united with the M. Z. church OF
Haydenville charge few weeks
since.
In closing this short sketch OF
the deceased friend, we must say
that he was good boy, and we
trust and believe that he Is safe at
home with Jesus on the banks Of
the River OF Life, enjoying the
Of eternal rest and peace,
which the good alone can enjoy.
"And when we reach the Inst hill,
Whose base deaths dark waters lave,
We SEQ tho rainbow arohing still
The lands beyond the grave"
II is cad to see friends so young
taken away,and the afflicted fam.
lily have the sympathy Of their |
friends in this sore bereavement.

Let not my star OF hope. . ~

some 10 years ago by hanging.
For the past few years Miss Camp

ing herself and the authorities
much trouble. or late she seemed
to become enfatuated with Mr..

AS soon as the alarm Of her deed
was given, Drs. j. L. Kirby and

could do nothing to restore her.
