Death of Mrs. L. D. McNuI ty.

Ucdtu VI WI o. L. w. mCNut ".
CraigsvilIe, June 17-Seldom are
men called upon to bear u burden Of
grief like that laid upon l.. d. McNul-
ty, of Portland. About week ago he
was summoned to the home of his
boyhood to be with his mother at her
death, and as he turned his back upon
the new made grave in Highland and
set his face to come to the home that
his young manhood had established
here, it was to stand by the cold and
lifeless form of his sweet young wife,
who but a week ago he had left in the
bloom of health and in the expectation
of Joyous motherhood. Many were
the tears of sympathy that welled up
from the hearts of friends as returning
he passed beneath their gaze into the
great desoiateness of the home which
she that was now gone had made bright
and happy for him. May God sanctify
this great affection to him and to her
| brothers and sisters.
Mrs. Men ulty was the daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Russell Wallace, of this
place, both of whom are deceased.
She is survived by large family OF
brothers and sisters and leaves two
small children, one an infant four days
old. She was a member of the Presby-
terrain church and possessed many
Christian graces, SO that they who
mourn for her, sorrow not as those
who have no hope. L he funeral took
place from the church Saturday after
noon at O'Clock, the services being
conducted by the Rev. j. E. BallOu,
assisted by Rev. H. A. Young, of Leb-
anon, the deceased former pastor. The
interment was in Beathany cemetery.
Sweet and tender was the sympathy
expressed by the many beautiful flow.
ers that loving hands brought to lay
upon the sleeping bosom of their de-
parted friend who had passed over
the river to abide forever in Immanu-
els Land. Especially handsome was
the design sent by the Odd Fellows
lodge Of Craigsville. The pallbearers
were G.. S. Craig, R. s. Read. ID. b.
Kunkle, j. B. Goolsby, and r M.
Newcomb, of this place, and Robe t
Kunkle, of Pond Gap.
