Death of Mr.. Davidson.

1t is seldom that a community is so uni
versally saddentd as by the death of Milon
Davidson last Monday evening in Alexan-
dria MINI. A full sketch Of his life work.
prepared at The Phoenix office and illus
trated with portrait, will be read with
much interest. In all his mature life he
commanded respect, confidence and affec-
ton. No eulogy could better express the
general feeling than the single sentence,
"He was loyal to the right" 1t is beauti-
fm to remember of him that he was
helper always, in all home affairs, in mis-
sions for the uplifting of humanity, and he
was in large degree tolerant and broad in
charity.
The funeral will be held tomorrow, Sat
