OBITuARY

On Monday, July 18th, in the pres
ence of a large body Of friends and
even the family servants that were left
were there, we laid to rest in the fami-
ly cemetery the mortal remains of Mrs.
A. A, Brdloy, nee Davis, who departed
this lie in Johnson City, Tenn, July
l4th, aged ~ years. She was married
to Daniel 0. Bradley August list, 1850.
In her home for years the gospel Of the
blessed Christ was preached, no church
being in the community. Her life was
full Of good works The never ceasing
devotion bestowed upon her devoted
and sorely afflicted husband, aged and
afflicted mother and sister is but one Of
the beautiful traits of character chat
adorned her life The memory OF her
name.will always be fresh in the hearts
of those who knew her. The poor was
never turned empty away, a good
neighbor aud citizen has left MS, the
friends have lost q true friend. Tho
church militant has lost faithful mem.
Der and her children have lost de-
voted mother. She has left us, but
her influence for good still lives. She
has gone where there shall be no more
death, neither shall there be any pain,
for tn 2 former things are passed away.
The writer knew her well. On one oc-
casion when it was said 1.-THE silver
chord is being broken in her home
she said to this humble scribe, lead us
in prayer, asking our Father if it be
thy will let this cup pass, if not give us
grace to bear it. Such presence Of
the divine power as was manifested in
that home! It's memory brings us near
the cross as we write, and we exclaim,
"Blessed Jesus, we'll toll on till he
shall say: cts enough, come up
higher"
We extend our sympathy TO the
children, relatives and friends, and lay
this sketch as a tribute to her memory.

killing Time at the Taylor Home
Clarkson, Tenn. Aug. 10. The de,
Ilightful home of General James 2.
Taylor, near this place, where Gov.
Robert L. Taylor and family are
spending the summer, has at last been
named. 1t was christened Rattle
snake Lodge" yesterday by Gov. Bob,
who, with other members of the family,
had an encounter with magnificent
specimen of the genuine, diamond
headed RATHER at the very door Of the
house.
The governors son, Master David,
was the Columbus of the enterprise and
discovered the snake. He raised the
yell and CONSERVATION smote the crowd
Of loungers under the great trees in the
yard. But above the uproar of excited
voices could be heard the death song of
the rattler.
The governor. who was deeply pom
dering his new lecture Sentiment,
arose from his silvan retreat and added
his well-known voice to the rapidly
augL.enting din. He shouted to every
body to run for life, and at the same
time made several rapid strides toward
the horizon himself Meantime, the
minstrel of the rocky foothills ran into
the grass near the path and merrily
! jingled his little tambourine.
When the governor saw that Lis son
had reached a place OF comparative
safety in tho orchard some distance
away, and he himself had attained Q
strategic position on the porch not fai
away, began to plan designs on the life
of the intruder. He DOTTED his hat anC
made backward sweep with his hant
as if to brush down the imaginary hairs
which seems to him to have sprung
from their tombs, resurrected ant
straight on end. Then without hesita
ton he shouted, "Kill itp' The popu

The governors secretary, who had a

bIOWhlOW committee May Be disrupted.
Nashville, Aug. 2O.-The action Of
the attorney General in advising
District Attorney Tillman against serv-
ing as chairman Of the compaign COM
mittee has doubtless led to the gossip
to the effect that all federal oflice-hold-
ers will be requested to retire from ex-
ecutiye and campaign committees.
Such action by the heads of depart
ments or by the national committee
would almost disrupt the Brownlow
committee, which has nine ofice-hold-
ers on it, The Evans committee has
seven members who are Office holders.
If any action is taken it will probably
be to cause the prominent office holders
to refrain from taking an active part in
the campaign.
