returned homo nearly two years age
and he kept growing gradually worse
His condition, however, was not pro
nOunced fatal until q few months ago
He was "a years, months and Is days
Of age.
He leaves father and mother, Mr.
and Mrs. G.. r. Taylor, three sisters,
Mrs. A. E. Herr, Misses Grace and An.
ME Taylor, and two brothers, George

departure.
Funeral services will be held ut l O..
clock this afternoon at the Presbyterian

and Elder w. 7. McLain will conduct
the services.
The citizens of the entire county
mourn with them IN their hours OF
grief. Mr.. Taylor was Barber county q
only soldier In the famous Twentieth

and so highly was he held in esteem by
his friends and neighbors that on his
return home from the field OF action
the entire city aud community welcom.
ed him at the depot, the city was deck
ed In flags and bunting anu there was
y demonstration gwen in his honor of
which he had cause to feel proud. His
disposition was of quiet. yet resolute
nature, modest yet aggressive aud de.
termlned. There was nothing that
tended toward vanity so often found in
young men of his ability and standing.
He lived q life of usefulness and puri.
ty. He improved his moments to his
credit and sacrificed his life in his
c0untry's service. HIS time on earth
Was brief but his career was noble and
useful. And while friends mourn with
the sggrieved parents. brothers and sis.
tiers, they have built an everlasting
monument In their memory in sacred
remembrance OF this young citizen and
soldier. this man whom everybody
knew, honored. respected and loved as
. friend. There is consolation in this,
II consolation can ever be snatched
from the jaws of death, and We all re-.
joice in the assurance that he has gone
to reward, richly earned and deserved.
