While at Piedmont Saturday / at
tended the funeral of Geo. Withers, who
was so brutality murdered. The funeral
was preached by his pastor, Rev. j.
Watson, from the 10th and 10th
Psalms. The service was held in the
same building in front of which he
was killed. There are still blood
stains on the door sills and casing.
They tried to wash it off but it still re-
mains. As the corpse was being
borne into the house, which at present
is being used for church, they sang
the beautiful song, 1T is well with my
soul. There was many a sad heart,
and tears came from every one. 1t
was sad, indeed. to see those fatherless
children and widowed mother weep
over the body of this good man. Mr..
Nithers and family were members of
the Baptist church at Piedmont, aud
were always doing acts of charity by
visiting the sick and comforting the
distressed. / have known his wife to
take buggy load of clothing and food
and give it to the poor of that town,
and he lost his life by trying to protect
a poor orphan girl, and if it had not
been tor his kindness for this child he
would be living to-day. The body was
taken to Mason City, Ills, Saturday
for burial. Bro. Withers leaves "a wife
and 3 boys and girls to mourn his
loss. ISAAC.

Ed. RegiSter-Owing to the remark
ably dry weather most farmers out
here are very much behind hand with
| their usual fall seeding; the fact is,
the ground is so hard that it is not
possible to break for seeding. In
many localities the trees are actually
dying; and may be seen, far away on
the mountains, with their leaves yell
low and dry, forming a great contrast
| to other trees. which have received a
sufficient moisture to keep them alive
and green. just now the prospects
for rain are meagre, indeed.
