MEMORIAL EXERCISES.
HELD IN THE BAPTIST CHURCH SUM-
DAY IN RESPECT TO PROF W. X.
NETTLEs.
Resolutions Adopted-Speec
Made.

The death of a good man is al
ways public calamity, whether
he had attained prominence or
not; but far greater is the loss
when to those personal qualities
that make up the citizen. are add
ed those that make the citizen
useful and prominent.
Self-poised without egotism.
and reliant without vanity,
Prof. w. X. Nettles devoted his
rare powers to truth and progress
and during his residence in Mag
nolia, he won from every one the
endearing epithet of friend, by
showing in all that he did as
citizen, as teacher, and as an
officer Of the law, how worthy he
was of friendship, how pure his
mind, how unseliish his heart,
and that he was in deed and in
truth their friend.
His open, frank and fearless
nature; his manly independence;
his strong Christian faith and
unwavering devotion to his reli-
gious principles; his vigorous
sense, genuine honesty Of soul,
and strong, placid nature, inspir-
ed confidence. aad he was loved
most by those who knew him best.
When such a man dies, it is
well for his associates 90 meet
and give public expression to the
loss they feel and pay tribute to
his memory, that the living may
learn what manner of man was
he who has gone, and that the
young may draw inspiration from
the lessons taught by his life and
works.
1t was in recognition of this fact
perhaps, that caused such a large
audience to assemble in the Bap-
tist church here Sunday morning
to hear the resolutions on the
death of Prof. Nettles and to lis
ten to the memorial addresses de-
livered by friends and associates
of the deceased.
The exercises were opened with
the song "How Firm a Found
alton, Ye Saints of the Lord. .
The Rev. A. R. Bond, pastor,
then read appropriate selections
from Scripture and offered fer
vent prayer.
Mrs. j. H. Price presided al
the organ, and Mrs. L. Brame,
Mrs. Chas. McDavit, Mr.. and
Mrs. J. E. Norwood and Mr.. J..
P. Tull composed the choir, and
rendered some very fine selec'
tions.
The resolutions prepared by
the committee appointed by thu
church, were read by Prof. w
H. Rowan, as follows:
tWhy does Death seek the bowers,
Where the choicest blossoms grow.
Death in its mysterious wa,
has taken from this communit,
and from this church one of III
choicest members, Brother w. X
Nettles. 1t is not for us to answe
why this was done-we only knoy
that our friend and brother i
gone; And when one OF such
, Christ-like spirit passes away W
feel like saying with Halleck:
