Death Of Capt. w. H. Kitchin.
A FRIEND.

Elsewhere Is printed brief sketch
of Capt. Kitchins life by DR.. J. D
Hufham.
OF such q man az Capt. Kitchin q
brief newspaper article can tell BIZ,
comparatively little.
He was born Dec. %, 1886, and had
spent his entire life in this community
except the four years he spent in the
Confederate army. He was Captain OF
Co. l. 18th Regiment. His company
was known as "Halifax Infantry"
He was in nearly all the important
battles of the war, and the universal
testimony OF his comrades In arms
from all parts OF the State, is that no
Drawer soldier ever drew sword or
ahouIdered musket.
Capt. Kitchin's life was an open
book to the people OF the State, and II
was Il shock to his friends al over the
Stats to learn Of his illness and death
of the one who but yesterday was a
giant amongst his fellows.
Capt. Kitohin has left a most inter-
esting family, and enjoyed the
unique pleasure OF seeing two Of his
sons elected at the same time TO sit to-
gether in the next session Of the nation
ii congress. It wxs one of the COM
fo;ting thoughts.,of his last hours that be
was leaving family of nine noble sons
and two lovely daughters.
He said in his last days, II am proud
of my sons" 1t ls one of the CHIEF
monuments to his busy, and In many
sepscts stormy life, that he has left a
large family of singulsrly gentle child
rem.
To be sure, In the rearing OF his IN
teresting family he has had the most
efficient helper in his good and noble
wife who has shared all with hi m from
the beginning.
Many prayers ascended daily during
bis illness that he might be spared, but
God ordered it otherwise.
The press OF the State thus Tar has
spoken in quite complimentary terms
of Capt. Kltchln.
The COMMONWEALTH joins heartily
In sympathy extended to all who are

ton.

In MEMORIAM.

Again the golden bowl has beer
broken at the fountain and the silver
cord has been loosed, and all that is
immortal OF Mrs. E. J. Proctor has Ia
ken It's abode with the redeemed and
salntet above.
| Only months and 20 DAYS to the
day of her death she stood BRIDE at
the altar, just on the threshold Of real
life, and then-as if from the altar to
the grave.
Mrs. Proctor truly possessed all the
qualifications that go to make noble
woman, and even in the midst of her
most excruclatlng pain she was never
heard to murmur or complain, but
! bore all with forti.ude and submissive
ness.
While she never joined any church
she had strong religious tendencies.
1t was only a snolt time before she
would nave connected herself VII b the
Baptist church OF which her husbA cd
is member.
No one doubts her christianity. The
wiiter can truly say he never heard her
during years OF acquaintance aay any
thing reproachful q religion.
But she has crossed TIE great Jordan
Of death and waits on the celestial
SIDE. Christ will say OF her as He did
OF Mary: "She hath done what she
could"
Death to such as she is only change
of residence. Only from the land of
desth to the glories of everlasting
light.
Death is the gateway through which
she has passed into the summerland of
love.
MrA Proctor leaves 4 husband, an
aged mother, five brothers and sister
May they remember the words of
Him who said: "My grace is sufficient
for thee.'
