OBITUARY.
ANDERSON.


George Anderson vas born Septem'
Der 10, 1919 and died December 20,
1896.
1t is not too much to say Of him that
he was a man among among men and
deserves to be remembered for what he
was and what he did. Though never
q nan of robust health, he was con-
stantly employed in some avocation.
He could not be idle, His activities
were principally confined to callings
that benefited others probably more
than himself. He was even excessively
fond of children and they loved him in
return and this led him to devote most
of his life to school teaching, in which
he achieved great success. He learned
Rev. William Wolford-the minister
who oficiated at his funeral-his let
tiers, and the pupil paid an eloquent
tribute to his worth and usefulness,
over his coffin.
Mr.. Anderson was most exemplary
in his walk and conversation. He
never allowed a word of obscenity or
profanity to befoul his lips.
He was a man of charity and benevo'
lence and would divide the last cent
and the last morsel with the needy.
He was one of the pioneers of the
temperance movement. He looked with
unutterable horror upon the ravages
of intemperance and did all he could
to hold in check this stream of death,
and was bold and pronounced in his
ceaseless war upon this enemy to man
kind. He was a prominent member OF
the Washingtonian Society, and from
1851 to 1850, and for some years after
the war he spent nearly his whole time
in organizing Divisions Of the Sons oil
Temperance. His whole heart was in
the work and opposition only made
him more decided in his views and
more determined In his work, and hun
dreds bless his name and will revere
his memory for his assistance in eman
cipating themselves from their terrible
slavery to the drink habit.
Mr.. Anderson was always an Opt
mist, and for him the darkest shadow
of life were not without some sunshine
He was a Presbyterian in faith anC
connection and of his deep and absorb
ing spirituality there can be no ques
ton.
He was a man of literary tastes,
great reader, and contributed q gooC
deal to the newspapers in the quain
style of the primitive times.
Mr.. Anderson belonged to a staid ant
sturdy family that enjoyed the public
confidence in the highest degree. Hi
father was Sheriff of Sullivan Count,
for four terms and was Justice of tn
Peace and Register of this County TO
forty nine years, holding both Office
at the same time. His brothers he'll
office in the same county for years.
He was a good, kind, Christian mar
going about even two days before hi
death in his mission of usefulness t
the world, and only laid aside his wor
when he vas ready for his crown.
He sleeps the peaceful sleep of tn
just in the Anderson graveyard nes

also a white spot in her forehead and

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN TEXAS.

Three Men Killed at q Religious Meeting.
Dallas, Texas, June 27.-Augustus
Garrison, Frank Jones and Thomas
Jones, brothers, have been neighbors
in Pleasant Valley, 20 miles north of
here. The families own adjoining
plantations. Garrison had q daughter
16 years old.
The Jones brothers we're unmarried.
Recently the girl made known to her
parents that she had beeen wronged by
Frank Jones. Garrison swore he would
have the life Of Jones, but mutual
friends succeeded in keeping the men
apart until today. The Garrison and
Jones families attended at the same
church, and just after the singing of a
hymn today Garrison stepped to the
doorway, apparently to let in some
fresh air.
He had no more than reached the
doorway when the congregation were
startled by pistol shots. Nearly a dozen
shots were fred. When the firing
ceased Garrison and Frank Jones were
lying dead in front of the church steps
and Thomas Jones was stretched on
the lawn nearby. In his left hand he
held a pistol. Tom Jones said that he
and his brother Frank were approach
ing the church door and were within
ten feet of it when Garrison appeared
and drew his pistol. His brother Frank
he said, was hit by the first bullet.
Tom drew his pistol and opened fire on
Garrison in defense of his brother.
After Frank fell Garrison opened
fire on Tom. Frank Jones was shot
three times. Garrison received but one
bullet and that penetrated his heart.
Tom Jones is not expected to recover.
