Mr.. IDIToR: Kindly give me
space in your valuable paper for
short tribute to the memory
of my esteemed friend and brother

about 10 o'clock. He was one
of the purest, and one of the
most popular citizens who ever

reelected every time, without

forming his duty US courier to
Col. Logan, in the battle at Rid

Sretty soon after he lost his fine

retire from the battle field--one
with a painful wound, and the
other without a horse.

Zannah MObley Pardonsd

On receiving the following let
ter from Judge Watts on Thurs
day Gov. McSweeney, pardoned
Zannah Mcbley, u negro sentenced
to life imprisonment from this
county in 1894. The letter ex
plains why the pardon should have

Hon. NJ. B. McSweeney, Gov
ernor of South Garolina-Dear
Sir: At the March term of Court
for this county in 1894 one Zan-

Death of Mrs. Jane Funderburk
Of Dudley, s. G.

Monroe Enquirer.
Of all the mysterious things
that God does for us in this world
the taking of a mother away from
home Of little children is the one
thing hardest to comprehend.
The subject of this writing had
heart disease for some time, but
was able to be up and walk some.
On the night of the 7th of March,
1902, she went to bed seemingly
as we'll as usual. Waking at mid
night, speaking a few words, she
went calmly to sleep again, and
what was the sorrow aud anguish
of her loving husband to find,
when he awoke next morning. her
dear form cold in death. Her
tender heart had ceased to throb,
her faithful spirit had taken it's
flight to its home beyond the stars
while her family slumbered. No
wonder that a soul SO pure could
leave this world so easily and
quietly that no one knew when it
went.
She was daughter of Daniel
and Martha Plyler, of Lancaster
County. She was one of fourteen
children, five of whom are living.
Her sisters are Mrs. John Laney,
of Cheraw, S. c., Mrs. Randel
Sapps and Mrs. Harry Stewart, of
Lancaster county. Her brothers
are Mr.. Rance Plyler and Mr.. D.
4. Ply Ter, of Lancaster. She was
born June 6, 1862. She was
married to Mr.. L. A. Funder-
burk on December Z, 1882. She
was a member of the Baptist
church at this place. She loved
her church, her neighbors, and her
God, whom she faithfully served
until He called her home. She
leaves a devoted husband and
eight children, her devotion to
whom had often been spoken of
by those who knew her.
Never was there a more loving
wife nor more tender mother
than she. Her remains were
buried at Liberty Hill Baptist
church on the evening Of the 9th
inst, in the presence of about two
hundred people. Surely, there
was never a more pathetic scene
than that sorrowing husband,
with his little children around him
weeping, as the clods were cover
ing their dear est one from sight.
We think, if tears in heaven can
be shed, the angles must have
wept when the wall of that little
child went up on the evening air:
"Oh, do let me see my poor nam.
ma one more time." Certainly,
the sympathetic heart of God
, pitied their innocent helplessness.
} May he fold His strong loving
: arms around them and keep then
in this world of core and bitter,
ness, and may He permit them
and their father to meet her some
glad sweet day in that beautiful
: home where death can no NOR,
take our loved ones from us.
