Editor Joe Dale, of the Monticello
illumination, otherwise the Lawrence
County Press, was a welcome caller at
this office Saturday morning. Bro
Dale, who has been vaguely suspected
of being Longino supporter, says the
next time Lawrence county is called
upon to furnish the State with one of
the best Governors she ever had, he
will be standing around himself where
the lightning can strike. Ahem
Mr.. and Mrs. J. n. Cooke and Mrs.
Chas. Heuck left last Saturday for
French Camp, upon receiving intelli-
gence by telegram of the death of Mrs.
r. ]. Stubblefield, sister of the ladies
named. Through repeated bereave-
ments in the past few years these good
women have doubtless learned to bear
all and endure all with that fortitude
characteristic of the Christian under
multiplied Affections. The sympathy
of THE LEADER is extended them.
Our esteemed friend, Prof. J. NJ
Girault, of Little Bahala, was in town
Friday and Saturday, and we were
pleased to see he had about recovered
from the effects of his long spell of i'll
health. He said the unusual occur
ence of double funeral took place at
Little Bahala on Tuesday, Sept 26th.
The dead were G. T. Breeder, an old
and respected citizen of that COM
munity, and Miss Leila Smith, a
daughter of Jas. Wade Smith.
The LEADER very much regrets to
learn of the death of Mr.. Champ 7.
Breeder, at his home on Little Bahala,
on Monday, Sept. 18th. He had been
in declining health for several months,
and for two or three weeks before
death relieved his sufferings, was con-
fined to his bed. The death of such a
man is loss not only to his own i'm
mediate community, but to the county.
He was ruggedly honest, radically
right on all moral and religious ques-
tions, as it was given him TO see the
right. and always possessed the cour-
age of his convictions and the candor
TO express them. Peace to his brave
and loyal spirit.
