has pitched It's tents within the cor

members will for perhaps month
be residents Of the town, and as
snch, the Recorder, on the part of
the metropolis, gives them a hearty
Western Virginia welcome.
They have a perfect right to be
classcd MS residents and not honor
ed guests, as is the usual case with
visitors, for they brought their
own residences with them, kitchen,
even, attached, and cook in the
kitchen very likely, none better
in the town. III addition to these
claims of good citizenship they pay
as they go, and if They stay long
enough will pay their taxes; they
have their washing done here and
so far as we know have a right to
cast their votes for the city fathers
to be elected Satur lay.

The subject Of this sketch was
born at the home now owned JY
Mr. Allen Armstrong, not far from
Doe Hill, in what was. then Pendle-
ton county, " Va, on Sept 24th
1915 and died at his home near
Monterey, Oh May IS 1901. after
spending a life Of So years Of faith
ful service to lis family, his neigh
bors and his Master.
Intcrment took place on Sunday
following, from the Southern Meth
odist church, OF which deceased
had for many years been a faithful
member, and it is very rare indeed,
that as many persons are seen here
at a funeral service. After an
impressive service by Rev IL A
Murrill, the remains were placed
beside the members Of his family
who have gone before, to await the
resurrection morn. And, thus Is
brought to peaceful close the life
of a good, christian mar, which, all
the way down, is crowded with
kind and neighborly acts toward
all mankind.
In 1912, Joseph Il Hiner mar
ried Ruth Jones, daughter of JO-
seph Jones, who resided on the farm
now owned by Mr. Josiah Wilson.
For 6years they journeyed togeth-
err sharing LIES pleasures as well
as its beartaches, until, in July
1883, death came and claim
ed the faithful companion and fond
mother, leaving the husband to
make the remainder Of the journey
alone.
With the exception Of on year,
the whole Of his life since marriage
was spent at his home on the pike
Just east of town, the home he made
with his hard labor, and which as
the days and years passed grew
dearer and dearer. From his shop
there he turned out wagons that
did service OIL many Highland farms
some Of them yet being in use, and
from there he started each fall sea-
son, for many years TO go through
the county with his threahing ma
chine. first with The old four horse
box and then with the improved
separator, and there was no person
who lived on his rounds that did
not know and respect him and wei
come his coming.
Year after year Mr. Hincr per-
formed tho service Of Judge OF
election at Monterey precinct, and
in the discharge of this important
duty for his country the same dill
gence and watchful care chat char
him in other walks of
life, was exercised in this.
OF the old Hiner family, OF
which deceased was a member, but
two are now living, viz: Miss Fam
ME I[iner of Back Creek aud Mrs

Of his own family there are five
