Mr.. ]. R. Webb died Wednes-
day, August 18th, of congestion, at
his home in the 9th district. Mr..
Webb was at one time resident Of
Bolivar and held the position of city
marshal. He was a kind-hearted,
generous man, a member of the
Masonic fraternity and had many
friends here and elsewhere, who
will learn of his death with sorrow.
A wife and two children survive.
His remains were buried in Spring
Greek graveyard.
Miss Sophia Talbot, after
rounding out her full "three score
years and ten," quietly passed away
on last Sunday evening at 8 o'clock,
after weeks of most intense suffer
ing. Miss Talbot, daughter of
Eli and Della Talbot, was born in
in 1880. Her parents
moved to Jackson in 1888, where
her girlhood days were spent. She
came to Bolivar before the war and
has since resided here. During her
long life she was an intense suffer
err, but through all she never MUIR
INJURED or complained. What a
lesson to be learned She was a
jealous church worker, and her
heart and hand we've always ready
TO aid in any charitable wo,k. The
world, for her circle OF acquaintan-
,es was large, is better for her hav-
ing lived in it.
The Dunlap Springs Company,
Of Bolivar, recently chartered under

accommodations for l5O guests, to
De ready for occupancy at the begin

also hopes to locate upon its prem
SEES a home for disabled members of
he Order cf Railway Conductors
md school for the orphan children
IF deceased members of this order.
The membership of the Order of
Railway Conductors is strong num-
'rically aud financially. We under
stand it is the intention of this or
Ter to build a home somewhere
Iouth of the Ohio river in the near
uture. The Dunlap Springs Com
,any will offer a site for the build
ngs free. IfOthose who are en-
the project succeed, as
hey have strong hopes of doing, it
will be a great benefit both to the
Springs and to Bolivar.
