OBITUARY.

At 4 o'clock p. IN. on the 9th
inst, Miss Ida NJ. Belk, second
daughter of MIR. and Mrs. j.. G..
Belk, departed this life after
lingering illness of many months.
AT the time of her death she was
81 years, months, and 19 days
old, she having been born January
90, 1880.
When the news of her dsatb
was circulated, it cast a pail of
gloom over the entire community
and the crowds that gathered at
her home and at the cemetery
gave evidence of her popularity
and the esteem in which she was
held by all, and their grief at her 1.
untimely death.
Miss Ida was most attractive
young lady and loved and esteem
cd by all who knew her. She was
great favorlte with the Young
people and possessed remarkable
influence for good over them.
About twelve years ago she united
with the church, connecting her
self with Camp Creek Baptist
church, and has since lived a con.
sistent christian life. She was
not content to be an idle christian:
but was ever seeking work to do
for the Master whom she served.
If in the circle of her acquaintance
she saw a young man drifting
away she did not Hesitate to ap-
proach him and in her gentle, plead
ing way endeavor to bring him
back into the fold, and many were
thus influenced by her.
A pathetic lncldept occurred at
the funeral. After services by
Rev. j. w. Little the coffin was
opened and her aged grandmother,
leaning on the arm of her daught-
or, went to take a last look at the
placid features of her beloved
grandchild, whom she had not
seen since her death. AS she
stood before the open coffin, with
the tears streaming down her
aged cheeks, her voice stifled by
sobs, and her whole frame qulver-
ing with emotion, there were few
that looked on the scene with dry
eyes.
The body was then carried out
TO the cemetery and tenderly and
reverently deposited in the earth.
and the grave was literally COW
cred with beautiful flowers placed
there by loving hands.

Himself.
Mr.. j. Frank Clyburn Ends His
Life With Pistol. Sad Occur
renee Early Friday Morning
Cause of the Suicide
Mystery.

Mr.. j. Frank Clyburn, of
Lancaster, who has been in busi
ness here for nearly year aud a
half, committed suicide early yes
terday n orning, selecting as the
place Elmwood cemetery. There
were no witnesses to the shooting.
The coroner's jury returned q
verdict to the effect that the de-
ceased came to his death by a
pistol shot from his own hand,
and assigned as the supposed
cause melancholia. Such are the
cold facts In one of the saddest
tragedies that Columbia has had
for a long time-a young man of
prominent family suddenly bring
ing his promising life to a close,
apparently after due deliberation.
The young man was brother Of
Bookkeeper CIyburn, of the Of
flee of the comptroller general,
and was only 25 years of age.
The afternoon and evening before
he talked pleasantly with DR.. Nc
Dow, also of Lancaster, who has
come here to live, and kept care
fully concealed his purpose to end
his own life, if at that time such
purpose was in his mind.
The main witness at the coro-
ner's inquest were Mr.. Brown
keeper of the cemetery, Mr.. E.
f. Calvo, who happened to be at
the cemetery, living just across
the street from the entrance, and
DR.. Mellow, the first physician at
the scene of the tragedy.
Mr.. Calvo and Mr.. Brown were
in the cemetery talking yesterday
morning at the formers plot,
when MIR. Calvo noticed a young,
man walking lelsurely down the
carriage drive leading to the Con-
federate soldiers enclosure. The
man wore a steel gray suit and
soft felt hat of the same color.
Shortly after, perhaps five
minutes later, the sharp report Of
a pistol was heard in the direction
of the soldiers enclosure, and Mr..
Brown thinking it might be some
one shooting pigeons in violation
of the rules of the cemetery,
started to investigate.
On reaching the northeast corner
of the enclosure he found man
lying north and south under the
large magnolia tree, his hat and
coat thrown at the foot of the
tree. Quite ignorant as TO what
was the matter he attempted to
make the man get up, but failing
in this, he motioned to Mr.. Calvo.
Mr.. Calvo noticed as he came up
that blood was flowing from the
mans back. He spied also a 32-
cahbre Smith 4 Wesson pistol
lying about three feet to the right
of the body. This tod the story.
The dying man was lying on
his left side with his head on his
elbow. On turning him over Mr..
Calvo recognized the face as that
of Mr.. j. Frank ely burn, young
insurance agent.
He shot himself just over the
eft nipple, the ball passing out at
he back, Just missiag the heart
and lodging IN the spine.
While Mr.. Brown ran to phone
or the nearest physician, Mr..
'alvo attempted to get a last mes
age from the wounded man, tell.
ng him he vas about to die. But
be blood in his mouth kept hlm
rom saying anything until the
Keeper of the cemetery returned
With some water. He then spoke
,hree times.
