ems all lines show that same steady front
which has ruled for the past two weeks.
In mems wear fabrics, the continued sales
on the road that advanced prices rulings

the trade. This IS not confined only TO the
cheaper lines, but a considerable amount

Mr.. Walter G. Dickerson died al
his home near Herndon December 6
1896, in his Bird year of age, after a
painful illness of three weeks; at the
close of beautiful Sab bath day, his
spirit took its fight to Him who gave
it, fitting and sweet time to enter
into rest. He was the youngest child
of Mr.. and Mrs. H. d. Dickerson, of
Dinwiddie, Co. Va, came to Christian
county almost eight years ago, united
with the Methodist church at Hern
don shortly after he located here. He
was an active useful worker in his
Masters Vineyard, and will be great
ly missed in his church, and was
kind, obliging neighbor, all that a
loving wife could desire, and his sad,
untimely death is deeply regretted by
all. Mr.. Dickeroon possessed many
noble and lovely traits Of character;
he cultivated bright happy disposi
ton, patient and uncomplainlng ID
affection and adversely, and almost
his last breath was spent in singing
his Masters praises; he sang "Jusus
Lover of My Soul" when nearly all
his strength was gone.
The funeral services were conducted
by his pastor Rev. 9. w. Lyon, at his
late home, and Notwithstanding the
inclemency of the weather large
concourse of people were present.
He was twice married, his first con
sort being Miss Molie Wells If Vir-
ginia, who lived but short time after
her marriage; after he came to Ken
lucky he married Miss Mary K. Boyd.
eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robt.
l.. Boyd. who with two children sur.
wives him.
Our tenderest sympathies go out to
